One of many new initiatives for the premier crop-agnostic trade event for vertical and indoor farming, the Start-Up Showcase will shine a spotlight on the newest technologies and capabilities from today’s emerging leaders.
“Available exclusively to new, first-time Indoor Ag-Con exhibitors, our Start-Up Showcase is designed to offer these young companies a cost-effective, easily accessible gateway to indoor ag decision-makers,” explains Brian Sullivan, co-owner of Indoor Ag-Con LLC along with other event industry veterans Nancy Hallberg and Kris Sieradzki. “And, it gives our attendees the perfect opportunity to network with these newcomers and get a first-hand look at their offerings.”

The Indoor Ag-Con May 2020 Start-Up Showcase booth package includes a high-top table, two stools, one all-access Indoor Ag-Con Conference Pass, as well as a number of marketing promotions.

NEW LOCATION: WYNN LAS VEGAS
To deliver a top-quality meeting experience for its attendees, Indoor Ag-Con heads to Wynn Las Vegas for 2020.

NEW ASSOCIATION ALLIANCES
Indoor Ag-Con is forging new alliances with other events, industry associations/groups that will play an integral role in its marketing outreach and conference programming. Look for partnership announcements coming soon.

FINE-TUNED EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM FEATURING THREE DEDICATED TRACKS
