The exhibition organizing market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $30.47 billion in 2023 to $31.94 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5%. The growth observed during the historic period can be attributed to several factors, economic growth, globalization, expansion within specific industries, government support and policies, and increased urbanization.

The exhibition organizing market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $38.75 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2%.

This increase is largely due to the globalization of business and the growing demand for face-to-face meetings and networking opportunities. Organizing exhibitions is essential for business travelers as it supports networking, showcases new innovations, and fosters industry partnerships. For example, the Office for National Statistics reported in May 2023 that business visits to and from the UK reached 5.14 million in 2022, up from 1.22 million in 2021. This rise in business travel is contributing to the expansion of the exhibition organizing market.

This initiative, running from fall 2023 to 2025, aims to celebrate the city's artistic heritage and creative communities through various events and exhibitions. It also seeks to foster collaboration among cultural practitioners, stimulate expansive narratives about Chicago art and design, and strengthen the local visual art scene. Art Design Chicago will feature the work of numerous artists through partnerships with over 50 art-focused organizations across 30 neighborhoods.
