Our Take
Why Exhibit
The larger of the two major US allergy/immunology meetings (AAAAI vs ACAAI), with 6,000+ attendees and 150+ exhibitors. Strong KOL presence for biologics companies, immunotherapy device manufacturers, and allergy diagnostic firms. Philadelphia 2026 location is accessible from major East Coast pharma/biotech hubs.
Why Skip
Allergy/immunology is a relatively small specialty -- if your device serves broader pulmonary or ENT applications, consider ATS or AAO-HNS instead. Both AAAAI and ACAAI serve similar audiences, so exhibiting at both may be redundant unless your product requires both academic (AAAAI) and community practice (ACAAI) channels.
Insider Tips
AAAAI = academic/research-oriented A/I meeting. ACAAI = community-practice-oriented. If you pick only one, AAAAI has more attendees and stronger KOL access. $35/sqft may be outdated -- confirm directly.
