Commitment Strong for 2011 Event
Dallas, Texas, August 19, 2010   Even before the close of the 2010 event in Philadelphia, companies began committing to exhibit at CONSTRUCT 2011 in Chicago.  The steady stream of space and sponsorship reservations has continued for the commercial building event.  Pleased by the 2010 verified attendance increase of 9% over the previous year, the majority of the companies already in line for Space Draw are past exhibitors who see the power of face-to-face interaction with attendees on the CONSTRUCT show floor.

The Space Draw deadline for initial exhibit booth reservations at the lower pre-space draw rate is Thursday, September 17th, just 4 weeks away. Exhibitor response is enthusiastic and space is booking quickly. With pricing continued to be held at the 2009 rate, most of the show’s prime exhibit space will be sold during this initial space assignment process. Companies have been quick to go online to select their top booth location choices as they complete their online contract application.

“As companies look at ways to conserve, it is more important than ever to meet current clients and build new relationships, face-to-face, in one location at one time.  Exhibiting at CONSTRUCT can have a significant impact on growing your business.  All of our attendees visit the Exhibit Hall, while 75% attend only for the show floor.  And, with non-conflicting education hours, our exhibitors have the time to meet one-on-one,” notes Kristen Hajduk, CONSTRUCT Show Manager.
