Frequently Asked Questions

The State of the Industry Conference in Orlando concentrates Food Industry professionals in one place, so your ads reach people already interested in your category instead of a broad, untargeted crowd.

Draw a geofence around JW Marriott Orlando, Grande Lakes in Orlando and serve display, video, or CTV ads to the phones inside it — the same audience an exhibitor pays for, without the booth, travel, or staff.

Geofenced event campaigns tend to outperform standard display because the audience is already primed for your category. Run ads during the event, then retarget the same attendees afterward.

The State of the Industry Conference draws Food Industry professionals, a focused audience for well-targeted advertising.
