Meet the New Generation of Trade Show Hot Shots

Twenty new young trade show professionals will be attending Expo! Expo! IAEE’s Annual Meeting & Exhibition in Anaheim, Calif., this December as their reward for being named to the International Association of Exhibitions and Events “20 Under 30” recognition program. The program, which is sponsored by the Austin, Texas, Convention and Visitors Bureau and Austin Convention Center, is all about helping the next generation of expo pros develop to their full potential as exhibition and events leaders, say IAEE leaders.

“The education and networking opportunities at Expo! Expo! are invaluable to all exhibitions and events professionals, regardless of where they are in their career,” says IAEE President and CEO David DuBois, CMP, CAE, FASAE, CTA. “These up-and-coming young professionals have demonstrated outstanding initiative and will undoubtedly benefit greatly from engaging in all that Expo! Expo! has to offer.”

The honorees receive a complimentary full registration to Expo! Expo!, lodging for three nights, and a place of honor at the IAEE Annual Networking Luncheon and Awards Presentation during the show.
