Representing up to a whopping $495 million in buying power in 2017, our VIP Hosted Buyer Program brings in some of the biggest building and renovation projects in the athletic, fitness and recreation industry.
Each year, decision-makers from around the world with building or renovation projects apply to be a coveted VIP Hosted Buyer to receive an all-expenses paid trip to AB Show. These decision-makers represent some of the largest capital improvement projects in the industry, with a minimum budget of $5 million, many of whom greatly surpass that. |

Our VIP Hosted Buyers have the exclusive opportunity for personal, one-on-one meetings with 10 exhibiting companies of their choice, all set up and managed by AB Show. Plus, they'll be making purchase decisions as they explore the show floor to find the products and services they'll need to manage and equip their facilities and programs.

One of our past VIP Hosted Buyers said about the program, "This was exactly what I needed at this point in my career and project. Having 15-20 minutes of undivided attention from professional architects was invaluable – I got new information from each discussion that led to new questions for each following meeting."

Advertising with Athletic Business has always been a key component of our marketing strategy to reach the many audiences we target. As we seek continued expansion of the Matrix brand into relevant channels, we rely on Athletic Business to increase and maintain our presence in the industry through the magazine, online and in-person at AB Show – and they haven't let us down!
It's always a fun and positive experience working with Athletic Business. I appreciate the collaborative relationship we have, knowing they have my best interest in mind.
