"I think the show floor in general was my favorite part of the show. I had a lot of great interactions with some new suppliers and vendors. To see new trends, new technology and new products and just be around other people who are excited about home building. The scale and size of the show is remarkable. Everyone says it’s huge but this show is huge."

"The 2024 IBS is tenfold bigger than my first show. Definitely made a lot of good connections. The amount of content and exposure you can get at the show exceeded my expectation."

"Going to IBS through the scholarship program was hands-down the best thing I could have done for my business. My #1 goal was IBS Education. You have to figure out what problems you have before you go to the show and sign up for these classes. Fortunately, I did that and attended the classes that fell into those areas and the classes were spot on."
