Once You’ve Registered:
1. Establish your Objectives and Goals - What do you want to accomplish during WasteExpo? Start by reviewing and prioritizing the education topics most important to your organization. It's the first step to planning your schedule.
2. Search and Build Agenda - The secret to feeling relaxed and organized is to build your conference agenda BEFORE you arrive in New Orleans! View the My Agenda icon on the bottom of the app glance to get started.
3. Do Your Homework - With over 600 exhibitors, it can be overwhelming once you get on the show floor. Research the exhibitors before the show so you are familiar with their products and have questions prepared to ask. Be sure to familiarize yourself with the floorplan so you know where they are located.
4. Network, Network, Network - Are you looking to bond with fellow waste and recycling colleagues or meet new industry peers? There’s no better place to mix and mingle with colleagues, customers and friends (outside of the show floor) than at the Welcome Reception, otherwise known as the waste, recycling and organic industry’s reunion. So if you haven’t purchased a ticket yet, you’ll want to. The Welcome Reception will take place on Monday, May 8, 6:30pm-9:30pm at the distinctive Generations Hall in downtown New Orleans.
5. International Attendee? - Looking to do business with U.S. companies? We can help you! WasteExpo has partnered with the U.S. Department of Commerce to help international buyers find American suppliers of quality products and services as part of the International Buyer Program.
