“We know trade shows are a significant investment, and these educational offerings will assist companies in gaining the most value from their exhibiting dollars,” said Bob Mortensen, IFPE 2017 chair and chief operating officer of Husco International.

The co-located CONEXPO-CON/AGG and IFPE exhibitions will be held March 7- 11, 2017 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.

Take Advantage of Education to Achieve Trade Show Success

March 2 in Las Vegas: For the convenience of exhibitors, AEM combined a half-day show-specific meeting (followed by a networking reception) with the unparalleled access to EXHIBITORLIVE, which focuses on exhibiting and marketing strategies and tactics to improve performance and enhance trade show ROI.

Now in its 28th year, EXHIBITORLIVE typically attracts more than 6,000 attendees. The event will feature more than 180 education sessions and workshops, plus networking events and an exhibit hall with more than 300 show-related suppliers and strategic partners.

During the CONEXPO-CON/AGG and IFPE exhibitor meeting, attendees will learn about new show features and planning tips to simplify their show participation and better connect with customers. They can also meet with show management and official show vendors to ask specific questions and discuss their planning needs.

August 23 in Chicago: While this meeting is open to all CONEXPO-CON/AGG and IFPE 2017 exhibitors, the session will focus on information of particular use for new-to-show and smaller exhibitors. Details will be available in the spring.
