The Central Gulf Coast presents its Third Annual Tradeshow on August 29, 2019 (Date Revised!). We have again procured space at the Five Rivers Delta Center on the Causeway north of Mobile Bay to congregate everyone related to the Fire Protection industry for the purposes of:
- Growing our collective understanding of current products, codes, technologies, and the science of fire protection
- Building relationships between our peers in our respective careers as well as other professionals in our parallel industries of Engineers, Contractors, Manufactures, First Responders, Vendors, Code Compliance Officers, and the next generation of our work force - students.
- Providing the opportunity for each of us to introducing ourselves or increase our exposure to potential Buyers, Employers, Clients, etc.
This year we have made some changes which we beleive will significantly improve the value to our commercial sponsors and the attendants. The schedule allows for a full hour for the speakers and their presentation, plus 15-minute breaks between presentations, a full hour lunch break for attendants to visit with booths without missing a presentation period, and a social hour after the last presentation which ends at much earlier this year at 2:45 pm, allowing attendees to socialize and network at the booths. Despite the shorter day and free times, the attendents have more than twice as many presentations to choose from with three concurrent presentations set for each period. This is sure to be a banner year for the Central Gulf Coast Chapter of the SFPE!
