Dimdex 2016 organizers tap Kallman to promote event

Organizers of the Dimdex 2016 event have called on Kallman Worldwide Inc. to market the international tradeshow to companies in the U.S., the company announced Wednesday.

Kallman will also be tasked with the organization of the U.S. International Pavillion that will be present at the event in Doha, Qatar. The international convention will be held March 29-31, 2016. The conference brings international maritime companies together.

Approximately 13,000 visitors representing 58 countries were in attendance at Dimdex 2014. Approximately 190 exhibitors were present and announced a total of approximately $23 billion in deals and contracts.

"Now in its fifth edition, Dimdex has grown to become one of most important events in the maritime industry because of its proven ability to draw hands-on buyers with budget and decision-making authority from the MENA region and around the world," President and CEO Tom Kallman said. "We are proud to have been asked to represent this business opportunity to our nation's maritime equipment, product and service providers, and look forward to helping them grow their share of the regional and global marketplace at Dimdex 2016."

Kallman Worldwide focuses on the advocacy of export marketing and they aim to assist businesses in the U.S. to become involved in international trade shows and similar events.

"We are confident that the addition of the U.S. International Pavilion organized by Kallman Worldwide will ensure increased U.S. participation at Dimdex 2016, and heightened interest in U.S. exhibitors among show attendees," Kallman said.
