“There are a number MMA consumer shows for fans who want autographs and t-shirts, but Fight Summit is the first true industry trade show and conference, where businesses in the MMA community can come together, network, learn from each other, and learn the top techniques of their trade. MMA is a fast-growing, national industry that requires a high-level conference and expo to help its tens of thousands of professionals to grow their businesses and advance their careers,” explains FIGHT SUMMIT Manager Mike Hauben. “FIGHT SUMMIT is that conference.”

FIGHT SUMMIT’s inaugural event offers great “Early Bird” attendee registration prices between $150 and $300 and offering incredibly affordable room rates at the Flamingo at $39 per night, which is unheard of for a major hotel right on the Vegas strip.”

The FIGHT SUMMIT floor plan will bring together the full conference and expo in one centralized location, with workshops running throughout all three show days, and the expo floor open throughout all event hours.

Sponsors for FIGHT SUMMIT include MMA Business Magazine, Combat Sports International, MMAWebDesign.com, MINDBODY, Inc., and Zebra Mats, and the show is already boasting a very impressive expo floor.
