We need a favor… It’s about voting… and, no it’s not about Iowa or New Hampshire. Or the Academy Awards. Or who is the best dancer or singer. It’s about who is the BEST. Classic Exhibits was nominated for a BEST Award in the Exhibit Systems Manufacturing category. We’re honored, of course, but let’s not kid ourselves, we want to win. We would appreciate your vote. See the link to vote and the explanation of the BEST Awards. And thank you.

The E2MA and Exhibit City News present the first annual BEST Awards created to honor the Best in Exhibit Servicing & Technology among trade show industry service organizations and management companies.

The company with the most votes by March 4, will receive the BEST award and will be honored at the BEST Awards Gala Banquet at the 2016 E2MA Red Diamond Congress on Wednesday, April 27, 2016 at the Renaissance Orlando at SeaWorld in Orlando, FL.

This year E2MA’s 2016 Red Diamond Congress will be a part of Engagement World. Engagement World is being launched by E2MA and the Enterprise Engagement Alliance (EEA). The Engagement World conference and expo is dedicated to highlighting the world of enterprise engagement in business and its many strategies and tactics.  The event is designed to help organizations in all areas of business profit from this emerging new field that many experts believe will rival advertising in scale.
