The AAPEX show sold out in 2023 with nearly 2,600 exhibiting companies representing 42 countries. Targeted buyers represented 130 countries, a 13% increase over the previous year. The top reasons buyers attend AAPEX include finding new products and innovations, identifying new suppliers, maintaining existing relationships and expanding their networks.
This year, AAPEX will expand into Caesars Forum to accommodate additional exhibitors, as well as future growth opportunities including new sections, new industry group participation and new industry-related shows. Caesars Forum is easily accessible from The Venetian Expo by crossing a short footbridge.
As part of AAPEX's expansion, ATRA’s Powertrain Expo, an international show with exhibitors and transmission repair specialists from around the globe, has already announced its 2024 event will be on the show floor at The Venetian Expo, inside AAPEX.
AAPEX attendee registration will open in early May and attendees may sign up now to be notified when registration is available.
