New York, February 18, 2014 – Registration for LGBT Confex’s 4th International LGBT Business Expo has ended its early-bird special period with almost 30 entities already confirmed to participate in the Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit edition. The International LGBT Business Expo has quickly become the leading expo for businesses interested in targeting the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender consumer, an estimated 6% of Latin America travel market share.The largest group of representatives will be the travel industry with destinations such as Las Vegas, San Francisco, Puerto Rico, Fort Lauderdale, Berlin and the Czech Republic leading the way, along with the corporate offices of the Hard Rock Hotels and Marriott International, with Casa Magana hosting the expo.  Mexican Tour Operators DiverCity and Leemba Travel will also be participating.

Given the current state of the LGBT rights movement, a new contingent has quickly gained a place on the exhibition floor which is made up of the Human Rights Campaign and the Familias Unidas law group.
The world’s leading LGBT consulting and marketing company, Out Now Global, will also be returning along with Out & Equal as well as American Express.

Others taking part in the expo include National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC),  Métonymie – London, The Palm at Playa Hotel, Hard Rock Cancun Hotel, Anticavilla Hotel, Graphic Freedom, Faffhy Studio, LAM Arquitectura and Soy Homosensual.

ENroute Communications, a PR and representation firm based in New York is heading the expo’s PR initiatives in the United States and Canada and will be launching the RFP for 2015 and 2016 in the upcoming months.

Full registration for exhibitors and buyers is now open at www.lgbtbusinessexpo.com with a special $95 a night rate from Marriott Casa Magna and discounted rates from American Airline, Delta Air Lines, Alaska Airlines, Aeromexico, United and Canada Air.
