Introduction to the US Diving Show:
The DEMA Show , organized by the Diving Association of America (DAA), is the world's largest and most professional diving exhibition, open only to industry professionals. It's a specialized diving exhibition for the diving, water sports, and marine exploration industries. Hundreds of exhibits showcase the latest developments in the diving industry, tourist destinations, water sports apparel, and other related sectors.
The previous DEMA Show covered a total area of 20,000 square meters, with 368 exhibitors from countries including China, Japan, Thailand, Singapore, Russia, Australia, Canada, Dubai, and Hong Kong, attracting 30,000 attendees. Participants came from all segments of the diving industry, including suppliers, retailers, service providers, designers, and landscape architects from around the world.
In addition to hosting numerous workshops, the DEMA Show features several dedicated exhibition centers. The Retail Resource Center, an interactive showcase and educational program, provides retailers with new and practical sales tools within the industry; the Imaging Resource Center demonstrates the strong momentum in the sales of underwater photography and video equipment; and the Travel Resource Center helps you take your business to the next level.
Statistics show that out of the more than 300 million people in the United States, 60 million hold diving certifications, accounting for approximately 41% of the world's total. This demonstrates the relatively mature and stable diving market in the US. In recent years, with the continuous development of China's diving industry, more and more Chinese companies are choosing to participate in overseas exhibitions to increase product exposure. Attending the DEMA diving exhibition is the preferred choice for many Chinese companies entering the US market. As an annual professional diving exhibition held in the US, the world's largest, and open only to industry professionals, DEMA offers a glimpse into the future of China's diving industry.
