Technology-based communities are evolving swiftly in terms of both nature and influence. Here, the owner of his own popular BAS connection community chats with other industry leaders in advance of his free AHR sessions in Dallas.
Once again, we bring you an advance peek of what will be on the floor when AHR Expo attendees arrive in Dallas late this month. Attendees and non-attendees alike can also browse a treasure trove of info at www.ahrexpo.com. But for now, enjoy a snapshot drawn straight from the exhibitors themselves.
The activities around the Expo continue to increase, but the miles and miles of exhibit space still sits in the center of the action. Here’s our annual glimpse at what’s new from the companies who hope to draw you to their booths this month.
The truth is, you could have an extremely fruitful trip to the AHR/ASHRAE host city next month and never set foot on the Expo floor. Between the paid ASHRAE courses and all the free sessions hosted by various groups over at the Expo (see conveniently integrated list below), attendees may have some hard choices as they balance new products with hot topics.
Over 1,700 companies have reserved more than 414,500 sq ft of exhibit space for the 2012 AHR Expo in Chicago January 23-25, making it the largest HVACR exposition of all-time. With several weeks remaining before the Show opens at McCormick Place, the 2012 event has already surpassed the previous all-time record of 410,415 sq ft set at the 2006 exposition in Chicago.
Registration is open for ASHRAE’s 2012 Winter Conference in Chicago, where attendees will have the chance to discuss and examine the latest topics in the building industry as well as participate in technical tours, attend ASHRAE Learning Institute courses, earn professional credits, and obtain ASHRAE certifications.
