Help Us Build The Newest, Best Version of EIA

Every business needs new business. And where can you find the greatest number of buyers and sellers together in one location? At tradeshows, conferences and conventions.

But with tens of thousands of these events to choose from, what's the fastest and easiest way to find the best tradeshows and conferences for your particular business? It's EventsInAmerica.com (EIA), the most comprehensive online directory of tradeshows, conferences, meetings and conventions in the USA and Canada. With a paid membership to EIA, you'll find in seconds what it takes hours to find through other sites and search engines -- and you'll have all the information you need about each event in a complete and easy-to-read record.

Join our Fundable campaign and get a full-access membership for 5 years at the same price as you'd normally pay for just 1 year. Or join at the other levels and get even more benefits. We've built what many think is the very best directory in the events business -- and now we want to enhance our already great site with even more data and new features and functions. Your participation in our successful Fundable campaign will enable us to do so.

Use EIA to Get Data, Links, Names, Email & More

If you're planning, attending, exhibiting, supplying, speaking at or wanting to do business with an upcoming event, you need details. And there's just no better, faster or easier way to get event details than through EIA's premium membership. As a member, you'll have tradeshow and conference information at your fingertips -- accessible anytime you want it. Sure, you can get this same information from the internet on your own, but you'll spend hours searching for it, then sifting through it and then, finally, printing or pasting it into another document. (Is it really free if it costs hours of your time?) So why spend hours when you can get what you need in seconds at a nominal cost?

At EventsInAmerica.com, we track over 14,000 professional events in 14 major industries including agriculture, architecture & construction, business, healthcare, technology, manufacturing, government and many others. If you own a business or you're the sales or marketing manager for your business, use EIA to find:

  • Tradeshow & conference dates, hours, locations, addresses and phone numbers
  • Important links to the official site / official hotel / essential documents
  • Attendance and audience demographics
  • Number of exhibitors and exhibit area square footage
  • Contact names for show management with email and phone
  • Costs to exhibit and sponsorship opportunities
  • Participating exhibitors (if known)......and much more.

Here's a typical event page on EventsInAmerica.com. Notice how easy it is to scan and quickly find all relevant details. That's how it is with every record. 

Plus, as a paid member, you can download individual event records with links and emails. You can also use our tools to:

  • Write private notes on event records that only you will see
  • Build an unlimited number of lists by industry or geographic region or size of audience (great for companies with regional sales reps)
  • Save your lists and get event updates automatically added to them
  • Share your lists with colleagues and invite them to attend
  • Add your events to your desktop calendar.

You'll also be able to find Industry Suppliers, Event Planners, CVBs and Convention Centers, and more. EventsInAmerica.com is a great sales research tool.

Who Uses EventsInAmerica.com?

We formally launched our site in late 2008. Today, about 700,000 people per year visit EventsInAmerica.com for tradeshow and conference information. Users are CEOs, Owners, Presidents, Entrepreneurs, VPs and Directors of Marketing, VPs and Directors of Sales, Event & Meeting Planners, General Managers and others. And the comments we hear from them most often are:

  • "You have better, more complete data than any other resource."

EventsInAmerica.com was chosen as one of MSNBC's Websites of the Week and is linked to by hundreds of other business sites. Here's why these people use EventsInAmerica.com:

  • If you're a Show Manager or Event Owner, you can list your event on EIA at no cost. Your event will get more visibility and you may get leads from paying attendees and exhibitors, also at no cost. With a membership, you can get competitive information on other events in your industry, city, date or venue. And you can get help in promoting your event on EIA.
  • As an Attendee or Exhibitor, you can get extensive details about upcoming events. You can build and share your event schedules with business colleagues.
  • As an Industry Supplier, Venue Operator, Entertainer or Professional Speaker, you can easily reach out and connect with Show Managers, the people who have the ability to hire you. And you can get help promoting your business on EIA.

Here's Why We're More Valuable

EventsInAmerica.com covers thousands of major and minor industry shows and conferences -- all the big ones and many of the smaller ones. We compile more of the tradeshow and conference information users want, with the tools they need, in a format that's super-easy to scan and at less total cost than other alternatives. That's what we provide. But what about our competition? Here's what they offer.

  • Company A is a general search engine. It's free but you'll spend hours searching (...and searching...) for events that meet your criteria, then hunting for conference details, then sifting through data, then printing. And then searching some more! 
  • Company B is a tradeshow directory. It charges $699 for an annual membership and sends you an Excel file. It offers no online tools to build and save lists, or share them with colleagues, or reach out to show managers.
  • Companies C & D are event directories that exist primarily to sell advertising. They offer few event details and their links only link back internally to their own site, not to the events themselves.

Only EventsInAmerica.com offers extensive data in one site and tools to use the data. The cost of one membership will pay for itself in just a few hours -- and by participating in our Fundable campaign, you'll have our site available to you for 5 years at the 1-year cost.

There's a Reward Tier for You

Join our Fundable campaign at one of these levels and get 5 years of benefits for the cost of just 1 year. Which level is right for you?

  • $499: For Industry Suppliers, Venue Operators and Professional Speakers. A Full-Access Membership and a Preferred Partner page for 5 years, plus a Featured Ad to promote your business for one month each year for 5 years. (About $100 per year)

Mark Travers - President & Publisher

The guy who's building the best events directory in the business. 


I've built EventsInAmerica.com to help everyone in business find more success. If you plan or participate in trade shows, conferences, conventions or meetings -- as an event owner, meeting planner, venue operator, industry supplier, exhibitor, speaker or attendee -- you'll find EventsInAmerica.com to be an invaluable resource. I know this for a fact. I ran an advertising agency for 23 years and in 2006, one of my clients had to have trade show and conference data ASAP. There was nothing like EIA at the time when my client needed it.....so I built it myself. Now, it's the only business I own.
