The American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) 2025 conference took place from April 25–27 in downtown Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This major trade show brought together industry leaders and professionals from around the world to show new advancements and connect in a vibrant, collaborative environment.
The trade show floor was filled with eye-catching custom exhibits, and at Connect Exhibits, our mission was simple but impactful- to design booths for our clients that are visually impressive and create impressions.

Our challenge was to take all of these individual needs and blend them into a single, well-designed booth that would perform effectively in a busy trade show.
At Connect Exhibit, every successful design starts with understanding. We took time to sit down with the ODS team to get a full picture of their goals and the experience they wanted to offer to attendees.
Once we had a clear understanding, we began with the layout. The design needed to feel open and welcoming while maximizing the available space. We developed a plan that allowed easy movement through the booth while also creating strategic stops where visitors could interact, watch presentations, or have conversations.
Some of the key design elements included:

The response was overwhelmingly positive, from both the ODS team and the attendees. The meeting areas were always in use, leading to real business conversations and valuable new relationships.
