We’re taking down the tall draping and creating a wide-
open ACCESS 2018 expo floor. After 45 years of
facilitating buying connections, this year is all about
maximizing your view and your connections. You will be
able to see the whole floor from anywhere on the floor and
make a decision on where you need to be. So join us on
the expo floor and build relationships while maximizing
your connections! See you there!
