Findings: The trade shows allow to be studied from an integrated strategic marketing approach. The fit model between the reasons for participation of exhibitors and visitors offer information on the lack of an understanding between exhibitors and visitors, leading to dissatisfaction with the participation, a fact that is reflected in the fair success. The model identified shows that a strategic plan must be designed in which the reason for participation of visitor was incorporated as moderating variable of the reason for participation of exhibitors.

Originality/value: The integrated perspective of stakeholders allows the study of the existing relationships between the principal groups of interest, in such a way that, having knowledge on the condition of the question of the trade shows facilitates the task of the investigator in future academic works and allows that the interested groups obtain a better performance to the participation in fairs, as visitor or as exhibitor.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Objeto: El presente trabajo tiene por objeto la propuesta de un modelo de análisis que permita medir el impacto que tiene, sobre los resultados feriales, el conocimiento o no de los motivos de participación de los visitantes por parte de los expositores. Diseño/metodología/enfoque: En base a la información arrojada por la literatura académica en torno a expositores y visitantes, se lleva a cabo un análisis comparado con el fin de determinar el grado de entendimiento existente entre ambos, dando lugar al diseño de un modelo de ajuste entre los motivos de participación de expositores y visitantes. Aportaciones y resultados: Las ferias comerciales permiten ser estudiadas desde un enfoque integrado de marketing estratégico. El modelo de relaciones entre los motivos de participación de expositores y visitantes arroja información sobre la falta de entendimiento existente entre ambos, hecho que se ve reflejado en el éxito ferial. En este sentido, se hace necesario el diseño de un plan estratégico, en el que los motivos de participación de los visitantes sean incorporados como variables moderadoras de los motivos de participación de los expositores. El artículo concluye con la aportación de una serie de proposiciones para la mejora de resultados feriales.Implicaciones sociales: Definir un modelo de ajuste que aumente el éxito ferial conlleva implícitamente a la consecución de objetivos para múltiples agentes interesados, más allá de la consideración de visitantes y expositores. Originalidad / Valor añadido: La perspectiva integrada de stakeholders permite el estudio de las relaciones existentes entre los principales grupos de interés, de tal forma que, tener conocimiento sobre el estado de la cuestión de las ferias comerciales facilita la tarea del investigador en futuros trabajos académicos y permite que los grupos interesados saquen un mayor rendimiento a la participación en ferias, ya sea en calidad de visitante o de expositor.
