Airports Council International – North America (ACI-NA) on March 12, announced its Annual Conference and Exhibition has been identified once again as one of the 50 fastest-growing trade shows in the United States by Trade Show Executive Magazine.  The achievement stems from continued growth in attendance, increase in exhibits, and expansion of the trade show floor.

The four-day event included trade show floor demonstrations and exhibits, solution showcases, keynote speakers, panel sessions, and enhanced networking opportunities. In addition, ACI-NA members were able to participate in issue-specific workshops and committee meetings before the show commenced. 

“Following the immense success of the 2017 ACI-NA Annual Conference and Exhibition in Fort Worth, our trade show floor for our 2018 event is already nearly sold-out,” said Burke.  “We are looking forward to the 2018 Annual Conference and Exhibition in Nashville.”
