Host opportunity · Adult day and home based care
Adult day services, adult day health centers, in-home agencies, respite providers and day programs for adults with disabilities buy from the same short list of suppliers and almost never meet them in one room. Partner with Business Expo Center to change that in your market, using the Adult Care Expo brand, this website, our marketing assets, and our always-on virtual expo platform.
Powered by Business Expo Center and 17 years of search authority.
Adult day and home based care is fragmented by design. Providers are mostly small, independently owned and licensed locally, which is exactly the profile that never gets its own trade show and finds suppliers by word of mouth instead.
The buying is not centralized either. In a twenty-seat center, the person choosing the transport contractor is often the same person who covers the floor when someone calls out sick. There is no procurement department to route a supplier to, so a good supplier gets found by referral, at a state association meeting, or not at all.
Here is the plain distinction, because the two sides are easy to confuse. This expo is for the non-residential and home based side: day programs, in-home agencies, respite, community based organizations, and small adult family and board and care homes. Residential assisted living communities, memory care buildings and senior housing construction belong to our separate assisted living event, not this one.
The two sides do not even buy the same things. Transport and congregate meals barely register in a residential setting, where the people being served already live in the building. In adult day services both are part of the daily operation, and both are bought from suppliers who never appear on a residential exhibitor list.
You bring the market and the standing in it. The parts that normally take a budget and twelve months are already built, tested, and running.
Adult Care Expo is a name this sector reads correctly on sight, and it narrows cleanly to a city, a state, or one slice of the work such as day programs for adults with disabilities. You get the brand and this site as the front door for your show, instead of a blank page and a domain nobody recognizes.
Your expo sits on Business Expo Center, a virtual exhibitor directory with 17 years of search authority and thousands of businesses listed. Exhibitors stay reachable in the months between shows, which is when most of the actual buying happens.
Marketing assets to promote the expo to your territory and your contact list, plus done-for-you video production. A transport contractor showing a lift-equipped vehicle on film explains itself in thirty seconds. The same thing as a line in a printed floor plan explains nothing.
We seed the directory with providers and suppliers from your region using public information. They claim and complete their listings, and the expo gives them a reason to. Business Expo Center already runs this format for other verticals and communities, with several sites live on the same partner and host model.
Tell us where you sit in adult day or home based care, which parts of the sector the show should cover, and the market you want to hold it in. We look at fit and reach. Your event history does not have to be polished.
You get the Adult Care Expo brand, this website, the marketing assets, and the always-on virtual expo platform. We seed your regional directory and walk you through registering exhibitors and pricing your floor.
You run the live expo in your market. The platform keeps running afterwards, so every supplier who took a stand stays findable long after the hall is packed down.
We can build a brand, a platform and a marketing kit. We cannot manufacture standing in your local care community. That is the part you bring, and it is the part that decides whether anyone turns up.
Do you sell to adult day centers, home care agencies, respite providers or day programs for adults with disabilities? Get a listing and a filmed video profile on a directory with 17 years of search authority, so an administrator finds you when the need comes up rather than only at the event. Providers can list too.
That list is deliberately not the residential one. If your product is building work, interiors or refurbishment, this is the wrong floor and the assisted living event is the right one.

For the trade. Adult Care Expo is a business-to-business trade event for the organizations that operate and supply adult day and home based care. It is not a resource for families arranging care for a relative, and nothing here is advice about choosing, arranging or paying for care.
Associations, operator groups, community based organizations and event organizers all host. What we look for is one market you already work in, standing enough that local providers and suppliers answer your call, and one person who owns the show day to day.
No. Adult Care Expo is a trade event for the industry: operators, program directors, administrators, procurement staff, and the suppliers who sell to them. It is not a resource for families arranging care. We publish no guidance on choosing a provider, on what level of care someone needs, or on how care is paid for, and nothing on this site should be read that way.
No. Those are residential, and they sit on our separate assisted living event rather than here. Adult Care Expo covers the non-residential and home based side: adult day services and adult day health centers, in-home and home care agencies, respite providers, day programs for adults with disabilities, community based care organizations, small adult family and board and care homes, and caregiver support organizations. If you build or refurbish senior housing, the other event is the one you want.
No, and we would be doing you a disservice if we tried. Requirements for adult day and home based care differ by state and by program type, and they change. We do not interpret them, publish them, or advise on them. Verify anything of that kind with your own state licensing authority before you rely on it. Nothing at the expo or in the directory implies endorsement by any licensing body, state agency or accreditor.
The supply chain behind non-residential care: non-emergency transport and vehicle fitting, activity and recreation programming, congregate and modified texture food service, scheduling and visit verification software, caregiver training and certification providers, background screening and staffing agencies, personal care and hygiene supplies, mobility and transfer equipment, adaptive furniture, infection control supplies, and insurance brokers and licensing consultants. Providers can list too. We do not rank, rate or endorse any exhibitor.
No. What matters far more is a real foothold in adult day or home based care in one market, enough standing that local providers and suppliers take your call, and one person who owns the event day to day. We supply the brand, the platform, the marketing assets, and the model.
Still weighing it up? Send an application and we will talk it through, or look at exhibiting if you would rather take a stand than run the show.
