How Does The MATCH! Program Work?
You’ll complete a profile and provide the product categories and solutions that you’re actively sourcing within the next 12-24 months
Our matchmaking technology will recommend exhibitors who best fit your needs
You request 20-minute one-to-one meetings with the exhibitors you’d like to meet – putting you in total control!

This MATCH! program is by far the most amazing and personable program that FDIC has ever done. It makes it easier to speak with the reps you want to meet with
-
It was an incredible experience. We enjoyed meeting with vendors we weren’t familiar with and allowed us to get the information we needed.
-
The MATCH! program rocks. Firefighters are no nonsense and like to get things done. This program allows for straightforward, one on one meetings with the vendors you need. MATCH! was able to provide that and treated us like VIPs. Well worth it.
-
If you’re looking for something specific, MATCH! is the best place to do it. Being able to sit down with a vendor and have a conversation, uninterrupted, is invaluable.
-
An excellent opportunity to sit down with vendors and describe your specific needs to see if they can meet them. It was outstanding!
-
This is my second FDIC and this one is much better than last year. The MATCH! VIP Lounge made this much more enjoyable.
-
MATCH! is a very comfortable, personalized and interactive format. You can get information, ask questions and get immediate answers.
