Why: The Motivation Show is the world’s premier event for incentives, recognition awards, and motivational meetings and events. The exhibit hall features 1,000 suppliers of merchandise and travel from around the world gathered to help you design incentive and recognition programs, and motivational meetings and events that reward loyalty and performance. More than 10,000 buyers have registered to attend.
Historically, incentive programs, unlike other sales and marketing strategies, have endured economic downturns. In fact, according to a review of past Incentive Federation and industry studies, the incentive industry grew following the recession that occurred in the late 1980s, and following the dot-com collapse in the late 1990s. Incentive programs tend to thrive during times of economic stress, despite the initial hit when bad times set in. It helps explain why savvy companies turn to incentive programs to drive business growth even while cutting budgets for other business development functions
The Motivation Show exhibit hall is divided into two sections:
- The National Premium/Incentive Show (NPIS) featuring branded merchandise, promotional products, recognition awards, gift cards, online and performance improvement services.
