Better Insights Better Decisions Better Events
CEIR provides insights and intelligence for the exhibitions and business events industry.
Welcome to the Center for Exhibition Industry Research (CEIR), the official research division of IAEE. Through this integration with IAEE, we are streamlining services to members and providing resources from both brands in one convenient place.
This change is part of a strategic effort to connect IAEE members to the industry-leading research that CEIR produces every year. As the official research division of IAEE, CEIR will continue to provide members with easily accessible data on the state of exhibitions, the state of your sector, benchmarks for your event, industry forecasts, and more.
CEIR’s mission remains the same: to provide insights and intelligence for the exhibitions and business events industry. As IAEE’s research division, CEIR will continue to deliver the industry’s most objective, comprehensive, and actionable research including:
- Sector-Based Performance Benchmarking Playbooks
- The Index Report/Dashboard
- The Annual Predict Conference
- The Event Performance Analyzer Tool
- And dozens of other reports
The CEIR research team already has a full schedule of reports and studies releasing in early 2026.
