Expanding Nextech3D.ai's Presence in the Event Industry

Expo! Expo! 2026 brings together professionals from across the exhibitions and events ecosystem. The IAEE program includes content for organizers, exhibitors, suppliers and other industry stakeholders, including topics related to AI and digital innovation, event operations and attendee experience.

The event's published buyer list includes professionals from organizations including the American Heart Association, American Petroleum Institute, American Institute of Architects, ASAE, American Bankers Association, American Academy of Dermatology and Clarion Events North America, among others.

Showcasing AI-Assisted Dynamic Booth Pricing

A key technology Nextech3D.ai plans to showcase at Expo! Expo! 2026 is its recently launched AI-assisted dynamic booth pricing functionality for Map D.

The functionality is designed to move beyond static booth pricing throughout an event's sales cycle, giving organizers greater flexibility in managing the pricing of available booth inventory while maintaining control over applicable pricing parameters.

The launch represents part of Nextech3D.ai's broader strategy to incorporate AI-assisted capabilities across its event technology portfolio, with a growing focus on automation, analytics, revenue management and event-commerce workflows.
