Latin America’s Leading Architects Forum

JUNE 21st - 24th, 2012, PANAMA CITY, PANAMA

What is Arc-LatinAmerica?

It is an intensive one-to-one business meetings program, delivering decision-makers from Latin America’s largest and most active architectural firms.

Now in its second year, it is the quickest and most direct route for suppliers to the architecture sector to secure productive face-to-face business meetings with top Latin American architecture principals and specifiers.

“It was an excellent opportunity to extend our Architects net, interesting seminars, immediate opportunity for new business.“

Bernardo Daniel Grimberg, Managing Director, DORMA Américas, Latín America

The leading architect’s forum in Latin America

How does it work?

Principal Architects in charge of the major projects in the Latin American countries attend by invitation only. All of their travel and accommodation are paid for by BOND Events.

The architects are attracted by our high-quality seminar programs, architect-to-architect networking and the opportunity to meet new suppliers providing innovative products, services and technologies.

When they confirm, architects provide a comprehensive profile of their current projects, plus a defined list of product and service requirements, which is made available for the exclusive use of suppliers.

Unlike trade shows, architects are assigned their own meeting point in the ballroom of the venue hotel, which suppliers attend at a specified time.

These meetings are pre-arranged, allowing both architects and suppliers to choose whom they wish to meet. Because this means their time is used so efficiently, around 84% of suppliers in 2011 have already reconfirmed their participation in Arc-LatinAmerica for 2012.

"Arc-LatinAmerica was a great opportunity to establish fruitful professional contacts for our current and future projects."

Fernando Maculan, BCMF Arquitetos, Brazil

In addition to the formal business meetings sessions by day, all delegates stay at Arc-LatinAmerica for the full 4 days and 3 evenings, and so have numerous opportunities to socialize and network informally.

The end result is deeper relationships, an accelerated understanding of new products and technologies and quantifiable business opportunities.

“The format of Arc-LatinAmerica is excellent and a very good experience. That’s its strength”

Ricardo Heria, HKS Arquitectos, Mexico
