It's a long road from now to March 7th, 8th, and 9th, but we're already on it. So, so on it. Almost too on it. :-)

The floor is filling up quickly. Good thing Darren added more spaces by rearranging some booth configurations. If you're interested in exhibiting, don't wait too long and contact Darren. We only accept people who have a good fit for our show both in product and in customer service.

Same thing goes with speakers. We have a good number of them, but we can use more. We'd especially love to hear from more women and youth, so if you have experiences to share, contact Chloe here to apply for a speaker slot!
