How is Predict different from other business conferences?
Predict offers the perfect mix of discussions that incorporate two types of forecasting models that can be used to prepare for the future: quantitative and qualitative. The quantitative data is observed in the CEIR Index model identifying patterns and trends from industry data points including net square feet, number of exhibitors, attendance, real revenue and more. Qualitative models are observed through partnerships with thought leaders with deep market research that is applicable and can affect the future of the industry in regards to attendee engagement, user experiences and more. Predict will provide you with information to help position your trade shows, and your company, for success.
