IAEE Expo! Expo! is here! This year’s event is all about action, and it takes place in sunny Anaheim, CA. Being a newcomer to the “show for shows” and not wanting to miss out on any opportunities, I put together an Expo! Expo! must-see list.
Here’s a peek at some the educational opportunities, exhibit booths and networking events that I’m really excited to see!
Educational Opportunities
We’re in an ever-changing industry, which is why learning what others are doing and new trends they’re seeing is so important. With 70+ learning opportunities, attendees will have their fill of knowledge by the end of the week! Here are a few of the learning sessions I’m excited to see:
