Must-See Booths at the Vendor Showcase
This is the time vendors go all out with eye-catching booths. Don't miss out on the latest merchandise from industry staples like Otterbox, Jabra, and the fan-favorite Popsockets.
It's not all about the merchandise though. Your experience isn't complete without interacting with a few technology vendors. We'll be exhibiting throughout the three days, so be sure to book us in for a meeting before it's too late.

A Final Word on iQmetrix Meetup
The best thing about attending the Meetup is the learning opportunities. Chances are you'll hear something you haven't heard before and you might meet someone new.
Nevertheless, while conferences are fun, they involve some hard work. Be sure to have clear goals in mind for your team before you show up. If you are making purchase decisions, make a list of vendors you need to meet. If you are looking at new technology, book a demo with them ahead of time to get a personalized experience.
See you there!
