EXHIBIT HALL ENTRANCE

SHAPE America utilizes the exhibit hall entrance to create a "grand entrance" to the exhibit hall, while also capitalizing on prime real estate to recognize our generous sponsors and year-round partners, share the exhibit hall schedule and exhibitor directory, and promote the next year's conference dates/location.

 

     

 

ACTIVATION LABS
