Registration is Open for IBEX 2022, Set to Cruise Back to Tampa Sept. 27-29
On the world marine trade show circuit, the two key international events are METSTRADE and IBEX. With Metstrade behind us, its huge success bodes well for the upcoming IBEX show in the USA.
Visitor registration for the 2022 IBEX show is now open. Set to take place September 27-29, 2022 at the Tampa Convention Center, the North America’s largest trade event for marine industry professionals offers access to more than 600 exhibitors from 14 countries spread throughout three exhibit halls, docks, and outdoor displays.
“We look forward to bringing the industry together at IBEX,” said Anne Dunbar, IBEX Show Director. “All early metrics indicate that IBEX will return to pre-pandemic numbers with exhibit space sold out. Our current hotel bookings have already surpassed 2019, and web site views have increased significantly so we know visitor interest is very high. We have a terrific schedule of events to entertain and educate everyone who attends IBEX 2022.
Register early and book your hotel now to maximize your IBEX experience.”
For marine professionals looking to stay up-to-date on the latest technologies and techniques, IBEX will offer its world-class training and education from industry experts and associations.
