Jackpot! AIMExpo ended its 4-year run in Las Vegas last week with the industry coming away from the table as the big winner. The preliminary payoff is that 2,000+ dealers and 400 exhibitors – including more than two dozen OEMs and nine distributors – came together on the 300,000 sq./ft. show floor.
“Thank you for making this year’s show the best one yet,” said Cinnamon Kernes, MIC VP of Market Expansion in a message to every AIMExpo 2025 attendee and participant. “The energy was exceptionally high, the feedback overwhelmingly positive, and attendance by dealers and industry leaders the strongest we’ve seen. The success of last week’s show is because we are all part of an industry that exudes strength, passion, determination and goodwill.”
The show featured two and a half days of Disruptive Thinking and Dealer Excellence education sessions led by industry experts examining big powersports issues, challenges, and opportunities, as well as the latest on ever-changing best-business practices for retailers. It also saw the debut of Tech Talks – fireside-chat-style discussions with tech business leaders.
“If you weren’t able to join us in Las Vegas last week, you missed the industry’s biggest trade-only event of the year – with new products launched from OEMs and aftermarket manufacturers, new technologies, next-gen idea-sharing in the new Digital & Tech Sector, countless networking opportunities, and good times had by all – and you need to make sure January 2026 is on your calendar.”
