It was great that WESTEC put a panel together about addressing the workforce needs of this industry. Was thrilled to participate and support!

exhibitor
The venue was great, although our hotel that was 1 mile away, was not in a good area. That's not fault of WESTEC, just all of the nice hotels filling up near it. If they didn't fill up, they become ve...ry expensive. Overall, it was an expensive trade show for our small company, but that is to be expected with any show in this area of Cali. We had less than half the leads as we did 2017. Mind you, we had a fantastic spot this year so we expected to get even more leads than in the past with more foot traffic going by our booth. Besides that, the poolside drinks and hors d'oeuvres on Wednesday night was spectacular, even made a couple strong leads from that after 5pm. Read more
