2. Passing out of company literature or promotions of any kind.
Any attendee reported to the show office for soliciting will be asked to leave. Sales professionals looking for outsourcing partners or evaluating the show as a future exhibitor are more than welcome to attend the show.
"I came looking for machining companies with technology to support services we are unable to do internally. The show was great. It was my first time coming and went beyond my expectations. Very Valuable! I received so much information."
"We were looking for metal castings and found plenty of great companies to potentially work with, however, the best part was talking with people we'd never expect to and coming up with some great ideas and collaborations."
"We are in between projects and are looking to expand our supplier base for the next project. The show was a great way to interface with new, diverse suppliers and it fully met my expectations."
