This bonus episode of the Beyond the Booth podcast was recorded live at #EXHIBITORLIVE 2026 in Tampa. It features quick interviews with industry professionals discussing the future of #tradeshows and experiential #marketing.
Adam Deming emphasizes excitement around new technology and #exhibitdesign possibilities, focusing on creating engaging, brand-driven experiences that attract and energize attendees. His “wish” for the industry is simple: more people at shows, greater engagement, and stronger face-to-face interactions.
Alec Pierson of Exploring highlights the shift beyond traditional trade shows into mobile, experiential, and offsite activations. He’s interested in how partners will leverage elements like flooring, graphics, and scenic builds to expand into new environments and better connect with audiences. His big-picture goal centers on sustainability (specifically, eliminating flooring waste by diverting materials from landfills across the industry).
Overall, the conversation underscores three key themes: innovation through technology, expanding experiential strategies beyond the show floor, and a growing commitment to sustainability.
