Your Project Community
This isn’t just a chance to come and sell. It’s about connecting with the most influential project leaders in your sector and all the collaborative opportunities that brings.
It starts with a series of one-to-one meetings with the buyers of your choice. And this is just the start: you are all together for 3 days and 3 nights so you can meet everyone and just one conversation in this company can open the project trail right up in front of you.
We’ve been bringing the real project leaders together since 2004 and it’s a proven formula for building game-changing business relationships that last.
Before the Event
Purchase your Package
Prices are based on the number of one-to-one meetings you want. Everything (except flights) is included: accommodation, airport transfers, meals, all activities and contacts book.
Choose Meetings
One month before the event, you pick the Architect and Design Principals you want to meet, based on their projects and profiles that we provide you with.
Prepare
This is not a trade show. There are no exhibition stands to worry about, the only thing you need is yourself and a good knowledge of the person sitting opposite you.
During the Event
One to One Meetings
Spread over Friday and Saturday, your meetings program is the core of the event. You’ll sit down with the Architects and Designers at their own table, for 30 minutes.
Networking
You’ll be making connections from the outset, starting with Thursday’s Pre-Event Tour and Welcome Reception. Breakfasts, lunches and dinners are all spent together so you can meet all the Architects and Designers here.
AIA Accredited Seminars
Word-class seminars tailored to Principal-level Architects and Designers help us attract the best in the industry. They’ll also give you insight into what Architects and Designers are thinking about, right now.
Benefits of the BOND Experience
More and more building and interior product manufacturers are turning to BOND Events as a more meaningful way to connect and build relationships with Architects and Designers. Here, some of BOND's clients explain why...
Why Attend?
Access hard-to-reach Principals
Running a studio often means there’s no time for trade shows, lunch and learns, or returning your calls. But our Principals make time for BOND because they can condense a year’s worth of quality meetings and information, into just two days. It’s the only time throughout the year that many will meet with suppliers.
Build relationships
With no exhibition stands, displays or staff to worry about, you can focus on building the relationships that will help your business prosper. Pick the meetings package that suits you - everything is included - just show up, take care of business and let us take care of the rest.
Save time and effort
All our Principals are pre-qualified decision makers with significant portfolios of live projects. Now consider the time, effort and expense of even trying to get in front of this number and quality of decision maker and you'll start to appreciate what's on offer here.
Get specified
30-minute uninterrupted, private meetings let you have a depth of interaction you won’t get at a tradeshow or office visit. It's more effective in getting specified because architects can 'get' your products and their applications, and you can get a clear understanding of what they need.
of suppliers surveyed in 2018 believe BOND's events provide them with a better ROI compared to a trade show.
Having done trade shows for a number of years I had fairly low expectations on ROI. I was wrong. The event is unlike a trade show and the one-on-one meetings were valuable information exchanges. The exposure to so many folks through the meetings drove familiarity outside the meetings, which helped build great relationships.

This is THE opportunity to meet with the top architects in the country. Relationships just keep growing.
