The Energy of EXHIBITORLIVE 2026

Our industry converged in Tampa for EXHIBITORLIVE, a week dedicated to the art of connection and the future of brand experiences.

For the Kubik team, it was more than just a trade show–it was an opportunity to reconnect with peers, learn from our competitors, and celebrate the success of our partners.

A major highlight of the week was seeing our client, Julie DeQuattro (UKG), earn her Diamond-Level CTSM credentials.

While on-site, Julie shared her perspective on the energy of the show:

“EXHIBITORLIVE‘s annual conference is always a highlight for me. It’s a reminder of why I love this industry and the people in it. It’s the unmatched energy on the show floor, the creativity, and the way the industry continues to evolve through new technology and emerging trends. It’s one of the few places where you can see, in real time, how ideas are brought to life, how brand stories are crafted and where the future of events is headed. This industry continues to grow, but it is unique that we are all like family.

Every year, I leave feeling inspired and recharged. There’s just something about being surrounded by people who care so deeply about creating meaningful experiences, it pushes you to think bigger, try new things, and bring that energy back into your own work.”

We’re heading back to work feeling just as recharged. Cheers to the innovators, the storytellers, and all those that make this industry so special!
