2011 RETHINKING THE FUTURE
Be a Part of an exciting, TAPPA Conference! The University of Houston, home of Cougar Pride, is proud to host the 2011 TAPPA Educational Conference and Business Partner Fair. This year’s conference is filled with excellent seminars designed to keep attendees current on sustainability trends, organizational change management, project delivery methods, and much more. Now, more than ever, higher education institutions must look to industry leaders as we create opportunities to “Rethink the Future”, which is our conference and business partner fair theme. A definite event highlight will be our popular Business Partner Fair which you have chosen to be a part of. We believe the fair will offer our conference attendees a chance to look at and learn more about the newest and most innovative products and services on the market as well as an opportunity to visit with our business partner representatives at each booth. As the event schedule indicates on the next page, to facilitate interactions and information sharing, our educational sessions and Monday lunch have been scheduled in a manner to increase traffic and participation in the vendor fair.
Booth Information: Free electricity and wireless will be available to all exhibitors! Most booths will be constructed of eight foot tall back drape and three foot tall side drapes, including a white vinyl top table and three sided skirt, 2 chairs and waste basket.
