Trade Show News Network ranked DEMA as one of the top tradeshows in 2012 and that is just one of the many honors and accolades that the annual event has received over the years. It is the largest trade-only event in the world for companies doing business in the scuba diving, ocean water sports and adventure/dive travel industries. The DEMA Show offers its participants the most extensive education curriculum in the industry including DEMA-Sponsored seminars and Exhibitor-Sponsored seminars from participating manufacturers, travel destinations and dive certification organizations. DEMA Show is produced by The Diving Equipment & Marketing Association. Leading dive equipment manufacturers will be offering tremendous show-exclusive discounts, truly a bonus that comes with attending.

There will be so much to see, savor and learn at DEMA 2013. The Convention Center Hall will be packed with hundreds of exhibitors. Thousands of attendees come from all ports of call around the globe just to experience the magic while some are looking to take control of their business and career and this is the most opportune outlet available.

A new product showcase allows guests to get a glimpse into the latest innovations to be introduced into the dive industry. In addition, there will be time to check out the latest innovations in technical diving gear as you visit the brand new technical diving resource centre.

An overwhelming favorite is the scuba demonstration pool where exhibitors will be on hand for new product demonstrations and give interested attendees the ability to test out the latest products for themselves.
