We are so grateful and overwhelmed with the response from our talk today at Exhibition Services & Contractors Association (ESCA)’s Educational Conference.
We’ve done dozens of these talks but this crowd not only embraced the ideas but were implementing them in real time.
After the talk, many of them showed us real conversations, ideas, workflows, etc kickstarted by what they heard us talk about on stage.
Director of Sales and Marketing David Freeman attended the recent ESCA Summer Educational Conference and brought back lots of great insights to share with the team. Being part of this dynamic community is such a benefit — we’re always learning something new from each other and working together to grow our industry as a whole.
Huge thanks to Exhibition Services & Contractors Association for hosting such a fantastic Summer Educational Conference! Grateful for the opportunity to connect, learn, and grow alongside so many industry leaders and innovators.
