Can students and instructors attend your shows?
Yes we encourage students to visit the show as they are future manufacturing professionals. Because this is an active business engagement, we ask that students and instructors follow some attendance guidelines.
1. Please attend the show after 11:00 am so the floor is less congested, and exhibitors have an opportunity to conduct business.
2. Please email our registration manager (regmgr@d2p.com) letting them know the size of your group that plans on attending.
Is “selling” to exhibitors, or passing out company literature allowed on the show floor?
We have a strict “no solicitation policy” at all our shows. This includes:
1. Direct conversation with exhibitors or attendees soliciting them for business.
2. Passing out of company literature or promotions of any kind.
Any attendee reported to the show office for soliciting will be asked to leave. Sales professionals looking for outsourcing partners or evaluating the show as a future exhibitor are more than welcome to attend the show.
"I came looking for machining companies with technology to support services we are unable to do internally. The show was great. It was my first time coming and went beyond my expectations. Very Valuable! I received so much information."
Katherine
"We were looking for metal castings and found plenty of great companies to potentially work with, however, the best part was talking with people we'd never expect to and coming up with some great ideas and collaborations."
Gabrielle
"We are in between projects and are looking to expand our supplier base for the next project. The show was a great way to interface with new, diverse suppliers and it fully met my expectations."
