Sally de Swart, AIME’s Event Director, says that AIME’s Hosted Buyer Program offers buyers a productive schedule to conduct business over an enjoyable two days.
“Exhibitors and Hosted Buyers come to AIME to make business happen by meeting with existing contacts and making important new ones. Face-to-face meetings are extremely valuable in this industry and AIME presents a perfect forum to meet with a host of contacts in just two days,” Ms de Swart said.
“This year’s event attracted almost 850 exhibitors, with 200 of these first time exhibitors at AIME, presenting a greater diversity of companies, products and services for buyers to choose from. We ensure that our Hosted Buyers gain value from their attendance and meet with those exhibitors they are really interested in doing business with.”
