Introduction
Welcome to the 17th edition of the UFI Global Exhibition Barometer survey. This study is based on a global survey,
conducted in June 2016. It represents up to date information on the development and the outlook of the global exhibition
industry as well as on 16 specific countries and zones.
UFI began assessing the impact of the global economic conditions on the exhibition industry twice a year in 2009, based
on perceptions of UFI members around the world. In 2010, this biannual survey became the UFI Global Exhibition
Barometer. For the United States, this survey includes SISO Members (Society of Independent Show Organizers) and
the scope of the Research has since been broadened to include members of AFIDA (Asociacin Internacional de Ferias
de Amrica), AMPROFEC (Asociacin Mexicana de Profesionales de Ferias y Exposiciones y Convenciones) and
UBRAFE (Unio Brasileira dos Promotores Feiras) in Central and South America and of EXSA (Exhibition and Events
Association of Southern Africa) in South Africa. In this 17th edition, Members from AEO (Association of Event
Organisers, UK) and TEA (Thai Exhibition Association) have been included for the first time.
Important remarks
It should be noted that the number of replies to the current survey (262 from 56 countries - see full list on the page 31)
provides representative results. However, the consolidated regional results may not reflect the situation of specific
countries in that region. This is why the report also includes a set of detailed results for the 16 countries or zones where
a significant number of answers were obtained are included (see list on the page 17).
Also it should be noted that the answers to this survey were provided before the recent events in the UK (EU
referendum) and Turkey (terrorist attacks).
Questions related to this survey can be addressed to Christian Druart, UFI Research Manager, at chris@ufi.org.

1. Gross Turnover development

The 17th Barometer surveyed the evolution of participants gross turnover expectations for the two halves of 2016 and
the first half of 2017 compared to their turnover during the same period in the previous year (regardless of possible
biennial effects).
The chart on the next page presents the percentage of companies declaring an increase in their turnover. It combines
these results with those of previous surveys since 2008. It does not take into account the unknown or not applicable
answers see footnote.
Survey results indicate a variety of current regional developments around the globe:
In North America, 7 to 9 companies out of 10 expect increase in turnover for all three periods;
In Europe, this is also the case for the UK. In Italy and Turkey this situation is only reached with time. In Germany,
less than 1 company out of 2 anticipates a growth for the first half of 2017. In Russia ,(only 1 company out of 2 on
average expects increase in turnover for all three periods;
In Asia/Pacific, 2 to 3 companies out of 10 have uncertainty as to their turnover for the first half of 2017, whereas for
2016, 5 to 6 companies out of 10 in China and most other Asian countries expect an increase. In Thailand however,
the situation is more contrasted;
In the Middle East and Africa, 3 to 4 companies out of 10 have uncertainty as to their turnover for the first half of
2017, whereas for 2016, 7 to 8 companies out of 10 in Iran and 4 to 5 in other countries expect an increase;
In Central and South America, a majority of companies anticipate decreases in 2016, but they are more confident
for the first half of 2017;
Footnote: The charts included in the second part of this report (Detailed results for selected countries or zones) detail these
results, adding the percentage of companies declaring decreases in their turnover and the percentage of unknown
answers.

2. Development of Operating Profits

The 17th Global Barometer survey questioned the evolution of operating profits for 2015 and 2016 compared to the
previous year.
The chart presented on the following page combines these results with those of previous surveys which track the
development of operating profits since 2009. It highlights the results of companies declaring an increase of more than
10% and those declaring a more stable result (between -10% and +10%) see footnote.
The detailed results show that:
More than 1 company out of 2 declare an increase of more than 10% in annual profits for 2015 and 2016 in Mexico,
USA, the UK and most countries in Central and South America (but not in Brazil, see below);
3 to 5 companies out of 10 declare an increase of more than 10% in annual profits for 2015 and 2016 in most
countries in Asia (except China, where only 2 to 3 do), the Middle East or Europe (but not in Russia and Turkey, see
below);
In Brazil, Russia and Turkey the levels of companies declaring an increase of more than 10% decrease sharply
between 2015 and 2016.
Footnote: The charts included in the second part of this report (Detailed results for selected countries or zones) detail these
results, adding the percentage of companies with reductions in profits or losses.

3. Most important business issues

Companies were asked to identify the three most important issues for their business in the coming year from a predefined list of seven issues. Multiples choices were proposed to get further insight for some answers.
As in previous surveys, around 80% of all answers relate to the following 4 issues:
State of the economy in home market (27% in the current survey)
Global economic developments (24% in the current survey)
Competition from within the industry (17% in the current survey)
Internal challenges (13% in the current survey), where Human resources are named as the most important
aspect.
Impact of digitalisation (Responding to customer digitalization needs, New digital products or Internal
processes), Competition with other media (Internet, Social media, Virtual trade shows or Other) and
Regulatory / Stakeholders issues (Sustainability, Health & safety or Other) appear as less important issues in the
coming year.
The next slide shows the consolidated global results, including further insights, where asked.
The following pages details those results by region and by type of activity (for 3 main segments: Organiser, Venue
only and Service provider only). Results show that there are no significant differences based on these criteria,
except for the Impact of digitalisation which is not so present, generally speaking, in Middle East and Africa and also
among Venues only, but receives vey high relevance in Germany (19%).

5. Recent security measures

This question aims to assess the actions launched recently in the context of the past terrorists attacks in several
places across the world.
The survey results show that 6 companies out of 10 on average have taken recent actions (and even 7 in Europe and
North America).
Additional measures include additional screening at event/venue entrances for visitors (28%), for exhibitors (15%),
additional controls on site during the event (25%), additional information for attendees (21%), checking the lists of preregistered participants in liaison with the police/defense (6%) or other measures (such as police presence in uniform
or not and new video devices).
Have you expanded security measures around your exhibitions / your venues in recent
months? If so, please identify these actions?

Conclusion
The Global Barometer survey has been measuring the pulse of the exhibition industry since 2008. The 17th survey,
conducted in June 2016, was answered by 262 companies from 56 countries. The results are detailed for 16
geographical zones, including 12 major national markets. Survey results reveals a number of key regional trends for
the exhibition industry:
In North America, the outlook is very positive: more than 8 companies out of 10 expect increase in turnover for 2016
and the first half of 2017 and more than 50% of those polled declare an increase of more than 10% in annual profits
for 2015 and 2016.
In Europe, UK - at the time of the survey, before the EU referendum - was expecting to perform in a positive way
similar to North America, whereas good perspectives also appeared in several European markets. In Germany
however, less than 50% of the survey participants anticipate a growth for the first half of 2017 compared to a
cyclically strong 2016. In Turkey, the levels of companies declaring a profit increase of more than 10% decreases
sharply between 2015 and 2016. The situation in Russia remains flat.
In Central and South America, a majority of companies anticipate turnover decreases in 2016, but are more
confident for the first half of 2017. Profits there are also expected to rise, with the notable exception of Brazil.
In Asia as well as in the Middle East and Africa, 3 to 5 companies out of 10 declare an increase of more than 10% in
annual profits for 2015 and 2016. The level is lower in China, where 2 to 3 do but 2 to 4 companies out of 10 report
uncertainty regarding their turnover for the first half of 2017.
In each region, the most important business issues remain related to the general economic situation with the state of
the economy in home market, the global economic development uncertainty, the competition from within the industry,
and internal challenges.
Security is also high on the agenda with a large majority of companies declaring having implemented additional
measures in the recent months, varying from additional screening for visitors and exhibitors to additional information
for attendees, controls on site during the event and also, sometimes, checking the lists of pre-registered participants in
liaison with government institutions.
