SISO - Society of Independent Show Organisers

Atlanta, Georgia, United States • 13 Employees
Events Services

In 1990, twelve independent show organisers met to discuss how they could meet regularly to discuss industry trends, opportunities and the differences between for-profit and not-for-profit issues that affected the way they could improve their companies' ability to succeed. It was at this first meeting that The Society of Independent Show Organisers was formed and has been dedicated to meeting the needs of the for-profit show organiser through networking, the exchange of ideas and experiences, and the ability to learn from each other in a non-competitive and candid environment.SISO members include companies, corporations and other for-profit entities that own, produce or provide full-service management of "face-to-face" trade shows, consumer shows, expositions, conferences and/or similar events as a substantial part of their business. SISO membership is a combination of large global corporations and small entrepreneurial enterprises from around the world. SISO's 200 member companies produce thousands of events, creating an overall $100+B impact on the global economy. SISO's Mission is to meet the common needs of our members, by providing peer networking opportunities, education, industry information, streamlined business processes and best practices in the industry.
