Testimonials

"Our partnership with Reed Exhibitions has been instrumental in our objective to grow the optical industry. We are able to utilize Reed’s economies of scale to secure the best vendors, locations and pricing for our show, as well as rely on their expertise in trade show management to effectively run the exhibition and conference program. Perhaps the best part of the relationship is that we are truly 50/50 partners, each recognizing that the end goal is to put on a successful show."

"The SHOT Show is the premier trade show and gathering for the shooting sports industry. Our 30-year partnership with Reed Exhibitions has helped empower the National Shooting Sports Foundation to promote, protect and preserve hunting and the shooting sports. You don’t grow from 12,000 NSF to 715,000 NSF without being customer-centric and delivering value to your exhibitors and attendees and that’s what Reed Exhibitions brings to the table."

"The AGA has been working with Reed Exhibitions for almost 10 years. When we were initially looking at a company to partner with, we chose Reed based on their stellar reputation and their commitment to helping us develop an event created by the industry and for the industry. It’s been a fortuitous pairing for many reasons, not the least of which are Reed’s business links outside the U.S. that have allowed us to accommodate the global growth of the gaming industry. Three years ago, our very successful G2E brand expanded into Macau, China and we continue to consider and pursue opportunities outside the U.S.

In the years we’ve been working with Reed we have found them to be true professionals. They are not only a strategic organization who looks at the long term and the big picture but they are also tactical experts who are committed to providing the very best customer experience for our exhibitors and our attendees.

We have always felt the lines of communication with Reed are wide open. We have an excellent day-to-day working relationship, and when there have been issues, we discuss them and resolve them together.

Reed is very respectful of the needs of our association and our business, and they understand the challenges we face. They even help us out with other events we run independently of Reed!

The brand we co-own with Reed, Global Gaming Expo, now consists of two events, one in Las Vegas and one in Macau. Since its launch in 2001, G2E Las Vegas has become the world’s largest gaming show and has seen consistent double-digit growth every single year. With Reed’s help, we have become a global brand that continues to be poised for further growth and that continues to gain market share from other global events."
