How Strike Helped VALD Elevate Their Brand at APTA CSM

Written by Strike Visuals | Feb 24, 2026 7:43:43 PM

Trade shows like APTA CSM are highly competitive environments where brands must do more than simply show up. They must capture attention, communicate clearly, and create meaningful engagement with attendees. When VALD prepared for APTA CSM, they partnered with Strike Visuals to build a custom booth solution aligned with their event goals and long term brand strategy.

This case study highlights how early collaboration, strategic planning, and intentional design helped create a booth that supported VALD’s objectives while reinforcing their brand identity.

Understanding VALD’s Event Goals Months in Advance

Successful booths do not happen overnight. Months before APTA CSM, our team at Strike Visuals met with VALD to understand their goals for the event.

We discussed:

  • What outcomes they wanted from the show
  • How they planned to engage physical therapy professionals
  • Whether the focus was lead generation, product demos, brand awareness, or all three
  • What message they wanted attendees to remember

By identifying these priorities early, we were able to design a booth solution that aligned with their marketing strategy rather than simply building a display structure.

Designing a Booth Around Brand Identity and Engagement

After defining VALD’s goals, we began developing booth design concepts that would:

  • Reflect their brand identity
  • Create strong visual impact on the show floor
  • Support live product demonstrations
  • Encourage meaningful conversations

Every design decision was intentional. Layout planning ensured clear traffic flow. Visual elements highlighted key messaging. The structure supported technology integration and product showcases without clutter.

Our team also worked closely with VALD to refine graphics and provide design support, ensuring their branding remained consistent, bold, and professional from every angle.

Custom Display Solutions Built for Performance

The final booth build was more than a display. It was a functional environment built to support:

  • High traffic visibility
  • Structured demo areas
  • Organized product presentation
  • Professional brand representation

From concept to installation, Strike Visuals handled the production process with attention to detail and quality. The booth was engineered for durability and repeated use, allowing VALD to maximize long term value beyond a single event.

The Result: A Booth That Supported Brand Awareness and Engagement

At APTA CSM, VALD’s custom booth helped them stand out in a crowded environment. The space allowed their team to confidently demonstrate products, engage healthcare professionals, and reinforce their reputation as an industry leader.

By combining strategic planning, professional design, and high quality production, the booth functioned as a powerful marketing asset rather than just a physical space.
