Like in prior years, ABAV International Tourism Expo, the leading international expo of this industry in the Americas, will promote business rounds during the 42 edition of the event to promote the direct contact between exhibitors and buyers. ABAV Nacional invested R$280 thousand this year in a scheduling system to facilitate the dynamics of the rounds.

The rounds are exclusive for exhibitors and co-exhibitors of ABAV Expo; to access this feature, they must input information on their brands, products and/or services in the scheduling system available on the event’s website. With access to this information, buyers can then request a personal meeting with the suppliers of their interest. Each meeting lasts 15 minutes and can be scheduled between September 24 and 26, dates exclusively dedicated to professional visitors, at the following times: 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m., 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., and 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m..

The organization of the event expects one thousand meetings to take place during the three days, when at least 450 buyers with decision-making potential and power will have visited the Business Lounge.

A total of 3,500 exhibitors and delegations from 65 countries have already confirmed their presence at the 42nd ABAV Expo, and 40,000 professionals are expected to visit the event.
