take the book home with them and refer to it for years to come, so this is a great
branding opportunity that pays off well after the event is over.

How it works:
-
Specifiers apply to attend, and participating manufacturers collectively choose who is invited.
-
Top ranked applicants are invited, and then the manufacturer and Specifier groups indicate their level of interest in meeting with each participant in the other group. Schedules are created based on that feedback.
-
You receive 14-16 thirty-minute one-on-one meetings at your table, based on mutual interest. The Specifier attendees will come to your table for the meetings.
-
The small event size (120-130 guests) ensures that you have a chance to meet every attendee. Receptions and dining events are designed for everyone to mix and mingle in a friendly and low-stress environment.
Table with one attendee: $10,500
Additional registrations: $4,500
Please note these prices do not include the cost of hotel rooms
