Why M&I Expo delivers better value than traditional MICE exhibitions

In a time when MICE professionals are under pressure to deliver more with less, understanding the true value of your investment is critical. It’s no longer just about cost, it’s about what that cost delivers.

At M&I Expo, we don’t just offer meetings. We offer high-impact, outcome-driven connections that deliver real ROI. Here’s why M&I Expo is redefining value in the meetings and events industry.

From cost to conversion: every meeting at M&I Expo delivers real ROI 

In the world of B2B events, not all meetings are created equal. At M&I Expo, the formula is simple: Cost × ROI = Value. What sets us apart is the quality and intention behind every scheduled encounter. 

At M&I Expo exhibiting partners are guaranteed 35 highly relevant, pre-qualified meetings; a strategically curated schedule designed to deliver maximum value thanks to rigorous quality control and a commitment to delivering intentional footfall.  

M&I Expo promises full meeting tables and less than 1% no-show rates, compared to traditional MICE exhibitions where a 30% buyer no-show rate is common, and countless empty meeting tables represent missed opportunities and wasted spend.  

What’s more important to you when exhibiting? Jam-packed aisles or a jam-packed meeting agenda with the right buyers? 

M&I Expo guarantees that every meeting counts. 

M&I Expo offers: Better buyers and higher value meetings, that equal a higher conversion rate 

The power of the M&I buyer audience starts before the event. M&I Expo’s rigorous vetting process brings in only pre-qualified senior level buyers, ensuring every conversation has high RFP potential. M&I’s proprietary AI powered matchmaking software combined with the hands-on involvement of a personal Meeting Concierge ensures that exhibitors are matched with buyers who have business for them, not casual browsers. 

This high-touch, AI powered approach to meeting curation leads to higher potential conversion rates, giving you tangible business outcomes rather than vague exposure. 

In contrast whilst traditional exhibitions often deliver high footfall they can prioritise size over substance. At M&I Expo we are focused on quality outcomes. We know our delegates don’t have time for meetings that are irrelevant or with buyers who aren’t decision-makers. At M&I Expo we won’t waste your time and budget.

M&I Expo: all-inclusive sales packages with no hidden fees 

M&I Expo shifts the focus from volume metrics to quality outcomes. Our all-inclusive, fully managed sales packages mean no hidden costs and no weeks spent chasing down meeting confirmations. 

With post-event lead reports, you’re equipped to evaluate success clearly and craft smarter strategies going forward. 

Traditional MICE exhibitions can often include hidden fees and require self-managed meetings – wasting your time with hours of admin and delivering low-cost, low-value leads with poor conversion rates. M&I Expo gives you your time back while helping you meet your sales targets. 

M&I Expo: a must attend event for your calendar 

Traditional trade shows are important for networking and building brand presence, and M&I Expo is designed to complement bastions of the MICE calendar – providing both brand awareness and serious lead generation opportunities in one streamlined high value event. 

M&I Expo is an event tailored for the elite of the MICE industry; the top 1,000 who can deliver the business results that matter.
