In addition to the hundreds of companies walking the show floor during industry hours, INPEX also offers the opportunity for exhibitors to participate in private appointments with select companies looking for new products. These companies attend INPEX to search for products as possible additions to their existing product lines and provide valuable feedback to exhibitors about their inventions. INPEX will schedule appointments for exhibitors who have appropriate products. Here’s a look at last year’s product-search companies:

NETWORKINGAs an INPEX exhibitor, you will be in the presence of inventors from around the world. Since inventors share a lot of the same experiences and goals, building relationships with your peers can be an enjoyable and informative experience. Many past exhibitors have told us that networking with other inventors was their favorite aspect of the show. Sometimes these meetings can even lead to friendships or business partnerships that last long after the show has ended.

Be sure to attend the International Exhibitor Reception/Foreign Innovator Awards Presentation Wednesday, June 14th at 5:15PM.
