United States. Although official data has not yet been revealed by the organization of the AHR Expo, the event that took place at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, from January 25 to 27, was attended by about 60,000 visitors from around the world.
This year's fair would be the second largest fair in the history of the AHR Expo. The show occupied 43,618m² of the convention center, which meant about 11,613m² more space than what was seen in 2010, when the fair was also organized in the city belonging to the State of Florida.
The show also had an important Latin participation from countries such as Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Panama, Puerto Rico, Argentina, Chile, the Dominican Republic and other Caribbean nations, which they took advantage of to learn about the latest trends in the industry and generate new business contacts.
ACR Latin America once again organized the Latin American Cocktail at the Cuba Libre Bar, a space that was visited by more than 190 professionals, who enjoyed some drinks and snacks to the rhythm of Latin music (see gallery).
Next year the AHR Expo will move to Las Vegas, from January 30 to February 1. The fair will then return to Chicago in 2018 and travel to Atlanta in 2019.
