Exhibition Industry: Submit your best practice example today and win one of UFI’s prestigious 2018 global industry awards!
Your organization and teams work hard. Let the industry recognize their efforts! Deadlines are quickly approaching for the UFI Digital Innovations, Human Resources and Operations and Services Awards. Award themes are determined by their respective Committees and change annually. The Committees also serve as judges.
The awards listed below are open to UFI members and non-members (exhibition organizers, operators of exhibition centers and service providers), and there is a nominal entry fee for non-members. Note the entries must be exhibition related.
The award criteria share one other thing this year – Results. Award winners’ new initiatives have had a positive impact on their organizations or clients in some kind of meaningful way.
All award winners will receive a complimentary registration to the UFI Global Congress in St. Petersburg, Russia this November. They will be officially recognized as award winners during the Congress, and have the possibility of presenting their award-winning ideas during the Best Practices Special Interest Group session, traditionally a popular one.
