puerTo rico “iSland of enchanTMenT”The Institute of Industrial Engineers invites you to showcase your products and services at the premier event for the world’s leading industrial and systems engineering professionals. This year’s conference will be held in beautiful San Juan, Puerto Rico, a city large enough to serve your needs, small enough to care.For 64 years, this conference has been a don’t-miss annual event. Here are just a few of the reasons why you can’t afford to miss it either.

diverSe, buT TargeTed, audienceExpect to see hundreds of managers, executives and educators who specialize in areas such as Six Sigma and quality, lean manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, ergonomics and more. The products and services you provide are essential to efficiency, productivity and profitability – all things that these attendees are required to deliver to their organizations. Of course, they will be there for the leading and most up-to-date educational sessions, renowned keynote presenters and unparalleled networking, but they will also be there to learn about the latest solutions that you can provide to help them advance their companies and universities beyond these economically challenging times.

MaxiMuM expoSureRelationships matter in business and despite the reach of the Internet, business relationships cannot be electronic only. They must be personal, face-to-face in order to nurture and develop relationships. Nearly half of attendees say the face-to-face interactions experienced at exhibitions are more valuable today than they were two years ago. Results suggest that exhibitions have the strongest value among attendees and anticipate that face-to-face interactions will further increase in value over the next two years.

Custom integrated exhibit packages are at your disposal, including event and merchandise sponsorships, advertising on the conference website and in e-newsletters, on-site signage and much more to help you stand out from the crowd.

priMe TiMe placeMenTThe conference organizers have worked with the Caribe Hilton hotel to provide an ideal space to showcase your products and services, and the exhibit hall location and schedule will give you prime face-to-face opportunities to meet potential customers, solidify relationships with engineering professionals, recruit potential employees, and arrange meetings with key decision makers.

Last year, conference attendees commented that their favorite thing about the Annual Conference was the networking opportunities available. This event is ideal for face-to-face time with others in industry and developing relationships. Leaders, engineers and department heads will be in attendance and scrutinizing the opportunities to learn and acquire solutions to foster their growth. This is the ideal time to get your products and services in front of them.
