At the Exhibitor Summit, Trade show experts, including SEMA’s Trade Shows Director Tom Gattuso, will highlight the value-added Show programs available, proven strategies to attract additional buyers and increase business at the Show, and the tools and resources needed to help companies plan ahead.

Time’s running out to register for the eighth-annual SEMA Exhibitor Summit, to be held Monday–Tuesday, June 19–20, at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Designed to connect exhibitors with Show programs and services to boost ROI and increase company outreach, the Summit is regarded as the most effective way to prepare for the 2017 SEMA Show, especially for those who are new to the Show.

SEMA Show Exhibitor Summit attendees will work with Show experts to enhance their Show investment through effective planning, marketing and budgeting, as well as minimize costs on services such as material handling and electrical, explore promotional opportunities through sponsorships, and learn proven strategies to drive buyer traffic to their booths.

The Summit will also feature special events that connect companies with buyers in specific markets, show exhibitors how to benefit from early-bird deadlines, and help familiarize them with the layouts of the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino and Las Vegas Convention Center.

There is no cost to participate in the SEMA Show Exhibitor Summit. Complimentary hotel rooms are available to exhibitors and staff; however, participants are responsible for travel to and from Las Vegas. Space for the event is limited, so guarantee your spot today.
