Top Five Reasons to Exhibit at ICAST 2010
New Product Showcase - The New Product Showcase is ICAST’s flagship feature. Each year, the Showcase grows in size, level of competition and prestige. In 2010, record numbers of companies are expected to compete for the coveted “Best of Show” awards in 17 categories and overall “Best of Show.” The New Product Showcase is your opportunity to debut your latest innovation to a veritable “who’s who” in the sportfishing industry.
Number and Quality of Buyers - Nearly 2,400 buyers attended ICAST 2009. Exhibiting at ICAST allows you to reach more buyers in three days than you could see in one year. According to the ICAST 2009 follow-up exhibitor surveys 88 percent were satisfied with the quality of buyers who attended the show.
Media Exposure - Media attendance at ICAST has doubled over the past five years. More than 500 outdoor media representatives attend ICAST to assess and review what the sportfishing industry has to offer as well as to vote in the New Product Showcase.
Networking Opportunities - ICAST has a wealth of networking opportunities in addition to the show floor and is known as the place to jumpstart a new business.
