PACK EXPO International 2026 - 48,000 buyers, 2,600 suppliers, and four days of machinery in motion.
PACK EXPO International is the largest packaging and processing show in the Americas. It brings 48,000 professionals from more than 40 vertical markets together with 2,600 suppliers across 1.3 million net square feet. Buyers come to compare operating equipment, materials, automation, controls, and complete line solutions. For exhibitors, scale is the opportunity—and the hazard. Without a target list and disciplined capture, the best accounts can vanish into four buildings.

FABTECH 2026 — 31,000+ metalworking buyers return to Las Vegas for the first time in a decade.
FABTECH is North America’s largest event for metal forming, fabricating, welding, and finishing. In 2026 it returns to Las Vegas with 1,400 exhibitors, 31,000+ attendees, and more than 700,000 square feet of technology. The audience is practical, technically fluent, and often working against a live production constraint. That makes every specific booth conversation valuable—and every context-free badge scan a squandered opportunity.

IMTS 2026 - 1.2 Mn Sq Ft of manufacturing technology, 6 days to turn attention into pipeline
IMTS is the largest manufacturing technology show in the Western Hemisphere. More than 1,800 exhibitors span machining, automation, additive manufacturing, inspection, software, tooling, and industrial AI. The scale creates enormous opportunity—and a ruthless attention problem. Exhibitors win by knowing exactly which accounts matter, capturing technical context while it is fresh, and booking the next step before buyers disappear into another building.

IWF 2026 - the North American woodworking industry’s biggest buying floor
IWF brings the full wood-products manufacturing chain together: cabinet and furniture producers, architectural woodworkers, millwork operations, flooring manufacturers, distributors, and the machinery and technology companies that equip them. Buyers arrive with real throughput, labor, yield, and finishing problems. For exhibitors, four days in Atlanta can compress months of account discovery into a single, highly technical buying window.

STN EXPO West is the premier annual conference and trade show for the North American student transportation industry. Held every July in Reno, Nevada, it concentrates transportation directors, fleet managers, and school bus technology buyers in one venue — the Peppermill Resort — for six full days of training, summits, and vendor engagement. If your product touches a school bus, this is where budget holders go to decide who gets a meeting and who gets a brochure.

What is B2Brain and how does it work?
B2Brain is a field sales and event intelligence platform. Reps click a badge, business card or a linkedin profile, capture voice or text notes about the conversation, and send a calendar invite to the prospect on the spot. Every record syncs in real time to HubSpot or Salesforce with full event attribution.
What is the Leads-to-Meeting Metric (LTM) Metric?
Leads-to-Meeting (LTM) is the percentage of qualified booth leads at a trade show that convert into a scheduled follow-up meeting. The formula is LTM = Meetings Booked ÷ Qualified Booth Leads. Teams that book meetings on the spot at the booth typically achieve 40%+ LTM, compared to roughly 9% for teams relying on post-event SDR follow-up.
Does B2Brain integrate with Hubspot and Salesforce?
Yes. B2Brain has native, real-time, sync with both HubSpot and Salesforce. Every lead, note, meeting, and opportunity flows into the CRM with show attribution intact, and smart deduplication handles cases where multiple reps scan the same prospect.
Does B2Brain work Offline at trade shows?
Yes. The B2Brain iOS app is offline-first. Reps can scan badges and business cards, capture voice and text notes, and score leads without a live connection. Data queues locally and syncs when connectivity is restored - built specifically for the patchy WiFi of large convention centres, and for the Rep's flight back home after a tiring show.
How much does B2Brain cost?
B2Brain offers two pricing models. Per-event Show Pass starts from $200 per user per event with no annual commitment, designed for teams attending 3–5 shows a year. Platform subscriptions start around $10,000 per year and are designed for revenue teams running 8+ events annually with multi-vertical needs and full LTM attribution. See detailed Pricing
Can I book meetings directly from a badge scan?
Yes. After scanning a badge and capturing notes, the rep taps once to send a dual calendar invite to both the prospect and the correct AE - routed by territory, vertical, or named-account assignment. The prospect receives the invite before leaving the booth.
How fast can we deploy B2Brain before our next show?
Most teams are live within 2 hours. Reps download the iOS app, sign in via OTP, Google, or Microsoft, and the CRM integration is configured in a single onboarding session. No RevOps engineering is required for standard Salesforce or HubSpot connections.
Which industries is B2Brain built for?
B2Brain is purpose-built for B2B revenue teams selling to mid-market and enterprise customers in multiple industry verticals. Customers selling to Manufacturing (IMTS, FABTECH, ProMat), Supply Chain & Logistics (MODEX, CSCMP EDGE), Energy & Utilities (DISTRIBUTECH, POWERGEN, RE+), and Construction (World of Concrete, GreenBuild) have generated tremendous value and pipeline as well as streamlined their Event-led workflow significantly, with B2Brain.
