The NYC Chapter of the American Society of Plumbing Engineers is putting on
our biennial Plumbing and Fire Protection Exposition. We are excited to
announce that this year’s expo will be held at The Javits Center, New York
City’s premier venue for conventions, trade shows and special event. The
exposition will be attended by engineers, designers, consultants, contractors,
architects and city officials making it the opportune time and place to display
your latest products and services.
Our marketing campaign for the event has already kicked off with
professionally designed save-the-date posters being displayed at our monthly
meetings leading up to the event. We will also have save-the-date post cards,
printed in color, which will be provided to all exhibitors for their use and to all
members of the plumbing and fire protection design community. We plan on
raffling off prizes on the day of the event (i.e. iPad and/or Kindle) in order to
further boost attendance. Please feel free to bring your own promotional
items and giveaways. The venue itself has already created quite a buzz within
the design community.
Food and beverages will be provided for you and your guests, and the
audience throughout the event. There will be NO admittance fees for those
attending the event. You are encouraged to invite engineers, designers,
architects, etc.
