The AAPA Annual Convention is recognized as the premier gathering of the seaport industry, and this year is no different! If your customer targets include seaports, marine terminal operators, integrators, suppliers and other industry stakeholders, exhibiting at the AAPA Annual Convention will provide you direct access to the top decision makers--port commissioners and senior level port professionals, integrators, suppliers, and other stakeholder staff from throughout the Western Hemisphere. We understand that in today's competitive economic climate, strategic and cost-effective marketing has never been more necessary.
AAPA is here to guide you and ensure your successful exhibition experience, from exhibit sales through to execution of your virtual exhibit booth. The Annual Convention is AAPA's largest membership meeting of the year. Held every fall, this year's virtual Convention includes technical and policy committee meetings, business sessions and networking events, allowing port professionals and stakeholders in the marine transportation industry to exchange views and expand business contacts. The exhibition is an integral part of the convention program, providing opportunities for networking and exchange of ideas. This year's virtual exhibition is truly unique and one not to be missed!
