UAE-based technology firm Powerscore L.L.C-FZ has deployed its Event Powerscore Index in the United States. The platform provides a standardized measurement framework intended to help event operators compare performance across diverse portfolios.
Why it matters
Event organizers often struggle to compare performance across varied shows, leading to reliance on fragmented metrics like registration counts or survey results. A unified index aims to provide a common lens for operators to evaluate the efficacy of their 2027 programming.
The index is now active in the U.S. after previous launches in the UAE, Oman, and Nigeria. Connect Through Us and Index Holding have both committed their entire 2027 show portfolios to the measurement platform.
The players
Powerscore L.L.C-FZ
A UAE-based technology firm providing performance measurement frameworks for the events industry.

The details
The platform shifts performance tracking away from legacy indicators such as raw registration numbers, rebooking data, and post-event survey responses. Instead, the framework consolidates event variables into a single comparison metric to assist managers in identifying portfolio-wide trends. The U.S. market deployment was delivered in partnership with Shepard to facilitate the transition.
Timeline
2027: Connect Through Us and Index Holding will use the platform for all shows.
Market Landscape
This deployment represents a shift toward standardizing performance metrics across international markets. It follows a growing industry trend of moving away from fragmented, localized data sets in favor of centralized, portfolio-wide evaluation tools.
Operators managing multiple shows should assess whether their current manual data collection provides sufficient visibility for comparison. The adoption of a standardized index could offer a more consistent, albeit dependent, view of event efficacy starting in the 2027 cycle.
The takeaway
Unified measurement platforms aim to replace the limitations of individual registration surveys with a holistic view of event health. Consider auditing your current event reporting to see if it allows for cross-portfolio comparison or remains siloed within individual show metrics.
