Why An Integrated Market Center: Powerful Combination
Designed to bring buyers and sellers together, Cleveland MMCC is the world’s only facility targeted specifically to the medical and healthcare industries.
While the facility is a new approach for the healthcare segment, an integrated market center combining permanent showrooms, exhibition halls, and conference facilities has been proven in many other markets and is incredibly powerful and symbiotic. Each component of Cleveland MMCC is more successful by virtue of its proximity to the facility’s other healthcare functions, creating a critical mass of innovation, education and commerce.
Conventions incorporating temporary exhibit space with permanent showrooms enjoy increased booth sales because smaller and mid-size companies are motivated to exhibit near the critical mass of leadership in the Medical Mart. While traffic to the Medical Mart increases, conventions and conferences also generate greater attendance because visitors want to visit the flagship showrooms of the major manufacturers and industry pioneers during their visit.
With the ability to conduct business more efficiently, Cleveland MMCC is the new home for healthcare clinicians, suppliers, purchasers, specifiers, service providers and administrators worldwide.
