Exhibitor Showcase
MPV might stand for Motivation, Vision and Purpose, but in the case of our 2023 Exhibitor Showcase, it meant MegaVendorPresence More than 100 vendors set up shop inside a grand ballroom at CAESARS FORUM, sharing the latest tools, technology and products to supercharge business this year. While some familiar elements of the Exhibitor Showcase stayed the same—delicious small bites and cocktails, an easily navigable floor plan—others changed to offer a fresh experience for Sales Convention 2023 attendees.
Instead of the traditional company booth, attendees found a sleek Tech Talk Bar, staffed with members of the Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Solution Strategy team. Conversation flowed as attendees received customized support and information about the impressive suite of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices tech products available to them. But digital dialogue wasn’t the only new feature of the 2023 Exhibitor Showcase. In addition to "lounge" areas—yes, we saw you working in those comfy chairs because homes can’t sell themselves—Aisle 100 was stacked with even more recharge spaces, including a ping pong table! Competition heated up, and one burning question lingered in the vast, ballroom air: Who knew
BerkshireHathawayHomeServices network members were such table tennis enthusiasts?
Ping pong aside, this year also showcased Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices’ global network members. Attendees were invited to learn more about our worldwide reach by strolling through the aptly named International Avenue, where companies from Mexico to Madrid showcased their global strengths and identified opportunities to connect with feeder markets.
Sunday’s Networking Exhibitor Reception, hosted by Xpressdocs, and complete with chocolate-logo cupcakes, kicked off thirty minutes earlier than usual, with a first-ever Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices New Company Welcome Reception. During the reception, glasses of prosecco helped toast the newest members of our ever-expanding brand. Then, for the three days that followed, a wandering ring light photographer captured social media post-worthy moments attendees could share.
A record 24 exhibitors donated prizes for the mobile app game in 2023 and once again, the Exhibitor Showcase played host to a silent auction benefiting the Sunshine Kids, which saw one lucky attendee winning a Fender guitar signed by the members of OneRepublic, and one who won the "Village Quilt" (see page 17).
