# Find Marketplace events

If you're looking for additional opportunities with new customers, the Marketplace helps to expand your reach beyond traditional sales channels through our convenient experience. Buyers will post their events publicly, giving you access to a diverse pool of active customers actively seeking goods and services they need to source. Participating in these events can enhance your visibility and provide opportunities for new business.

### Review events list <a href="#revieweventslist" id="revieweventslist"></a>

From the **Marketplace list**, you can review a list of public events that you can respond to. For each event, you can review the event Title, Customer name and logo, Created Date, and Closes Date. If a buyer marks an event as rush or emergency, the event is highlighted yellow.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.fairmarkit.com/suppliers/suppliers/marketplace-suppliers/find-marketplace-events.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
