How the Report Was Compiled

Only tradeshows with at least 30,000 net square feet of paid exhibit space are included in Tradeshow Week's Quarterly Report of Tradeshow Statistics. While the quarterly report includes medical shows, a separate report is compiled to analyze that specific industry.

The quarterly report only includes shows whose managers supplied figures to TSW. Managers of 635 shows were telephoned, faxed and e-mailed up to three requests for statistics; 80 of them responded. Of those, 75 were eligible for inclusion in the report, producing a 13-percent response rate.

Although every effort is made to be accurate, not all statistics are subject to total verification. TSW accepts the statistics of show management as factual, while making as many inquiries as necessary to resolve apparent exaggerations or inconsistencies. In the past, facility managers, decorators, exhibitors or managers of competing shows have identified inaccuracies. Such assistance is appreciated, and a correction will be printed when an inaccuracy can be substantiated.

The next quarterly report, analyzing shows held from October through December, will be published March 6, 2006.
