Vision Expo Nominated for Trade Show Award

Vision Expo has been nominated as a Trade Show News Network (TSNN) Awards Best of Show finalist. The award celebrates trade show excellence and innovation.

In the award submission the co-owners of Vision Expo, Reed Exhibitions and The Vision Council, featured the new partnership with OptiCon. OptiCon @ Vision Expo launched at Vision Expo East 2018 in New York City.

“We are honored to be nominated for this award,” said Melissa Ashley, Senior Vice President of Reed Exhibitions. “It is particularly exciting to be recognized due to the success of OptiCon @ Vision Expo East, which delivered a new, engaging program for Opticians and Contact Lens Practitioners and increased attendance among these important groups.”

“Opticians and Contact Lens Practitioners are a vital part of the optical community,” said Mitch Barkley, Vice President of Trade Shows at The Vision Council. “By joining forces with OptiCon and combining our resources, we were able to nurture connections with these key audiences and ensure a high quality and affordable Show experience.”

Social Media voting for this year’s TSNN award is now open and will end on June 16. Voting for the awards is available here.

Vision Expo West will take place at the Sands Expo from September 26 – 29, with education beginning on September 26.
