Your Accelerator Advantage:
BIG BRAND IMPACT in a Shared Exhibition Space
Our team is working with Outdoor Retailer to organize a large, shared exhibition space at the summer and winter shows to build excitement around the emerging outdoor brands from Texas. Each participating brand will have the opportunity to customize their portion of the exhibit and will have the added support of TxORA team members on site to engage visitors.
There are additional opportunities for brands interested in helping sponsor the booth without having a physical presence at the show.
Other Events on the Horizon
Unable to attend the Outdoor Retailer Summer show but interested in future events? Let’s talk.
How to Get Involved
The outdoor recreation economy is a $48B industry in Texas, and we believe there’s plenty of room for growth for both small and large brands alike. And, the potential is greater when local businesses can work together towards a common goal. Products, services, venues, and more all make this industry what it is and have a place with us.
There are a number of ways your business can have a seat at the table, we just hope pull up a chair. Let’s talk.
