"ASC now has a solid calendar of meetings in place to help the industry plan for important events occurring over the next two years," notes Malinda Armstrong, Director, Meetings & Expositions at ASC. Starting next year (2017) ASC will move to an Annual Spring Convention and an Annual Executive Leadership Conference, which was voted on and approved by the ASC membership in 2016.



“This will provide annual programming for all levels within ASC’s member companies, from the leadership team to the technical and sales team”, notes Armstrong. The Annual Spring Convention & EXPO will be the largest event for ASC and an important event for the entire industry to attend. The Annual Spring Convention will include twelve sessions geared towards market segments within the industry, two concurrent short courses (a handout is available for DOWNLOAD), and an EXPANDED EXPO.



ASC plans its major meetings on a two-year timeline. The Council works to avoid scheduling conflicts with events managed by ACA, CPI, ASTM, PSTC, USGBC, Radtech, and with major religious and federal holidays.



In preparation for next year’s event, ASC is now accepting abstracts ONLINE for inclusion in the 2017 Annual Spring Convention program.



Companies wishing to reach the industry in 2017 can network and showcase their products and services to buyers and decision makers as an EXHIBITOR at the 2017 Annual Spring EXPO. Booths are assigned on a first-come-first-serve basis and can be reserved using the exhibitor handout and contract, which is available for DOWNLOAD.



Information about ASC’s meetings and events is always available 24/7 at www.ascouncil.org/events as details become available.



If you have any questions, contact Malinda Armstrong, Director, Meetings & Expositions at (301) 986-9700, x106 or malinda.armstrong@ascouncil.org.
