In addition, some 650 exhibiting companies out of the more than 1,700 total NAB Show exhibitors are headquartered outside the U.S.
"NAB Show continues to be the unparalleled gathering place for media and entertainment experts and exhibitors from all corners of the globe," said NAB Executive Vice President of Communications Dennis Wharton. "The international presence at this year’s convention will again play a significant role in shaping commerce on the exhibit floor and expose attendees to a diversity of networking opportunities, new ideas, and revenue-generating opportunities.”
NAB Show participates in the U.S. Department of Commerce's International Buyer Program, which recruits international trade delegations to select U.S. trade shows and connects international buyers with U.S. suppliers.
