TSNN Top 250 Trade Show List Data Visualization Developed by Bear Analytics

August 2, 2016

TSNN’s annual report on the Top 250 Trade Shows is an industry standard that is used by trade show producers to benchmark show performance and as a resource to industry suppliers.

Bear Analytics and TSNN have now taken the rich Trade Show performance dataset and created a series of Top 250 performance dashboards that allow users to interact with the data, draw comparisons, and explore the trends driving the industry’s top Trade Shows.

“The TSNN Top 250 Trade Show list ranks the top shows by net square footage,” said TSNN President Rachel Wimberly. “Bear Analytics was able to take this prestigious list and use data visualization to bring it to life an exciting and dynamic way. We hope readers enjoy finding out more about the shows, cities and overall trends featured on Top 250 list dashboards.”

These dashboards are best viewed on your desktop. Please use the text in red to guide you through the interactive features of each dashboard.
