ICUEE 2015 will be Largest Ever | Construction News

ICUEE 2015 will be the largest edition of the biennial trade show on record, says its organizer, The Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM).

At more than 27 acres of exhibits, with a record 900-plus exhibitors, including more than 200 companies new to the show, ICUEE 2015 will offer the largest and most comprehensive gathering of utility industry suppliers in the Western Hemisphere.

In addition, live demonstrations and hands-on experiences throughout the show will also help ICUEE attendees make highly informed purchasing decisions.

A new China pavilion and the AGC Technology & Business Solutions pavilion join the existing fleet management, green utility and iP safety exhibit pavilions.

Attendees will find it easier than ever to get around at ICUEE with new and improved transportation options, more places to take a break, and a better organized show floor.

The new Demo Derby app game and new Pedometer Challenge enhance the show experience and networking.

ICUEE 2015 will be held September 29-October 1 in Louisville, Ky., at the Kentucky Exposition Center.

“This will be an unparalleled shopping experience for utilities and utility contractors, with more new exhibitors, new products and new demos adding real value,” said Show Director Sara Truesdale Mooney.

ICUEE, the International Construction and Utility Equipment Exposition, is also known as The Demo Expo. It brings together industry professionals to gain comprehensive insights into the latest technologies, innovations and trends affecting their industry.

“We know it’s a big show, with so much to see and do. We wanted to help attendees focus on the products and education that will mean the most to their businesses, and we also wanted to make the show experience more fun,” said Mooney.

The exhibitor directory/show planner is searchable and includes a New Products and Technologies preview, demo schedule, education line-up, list of New Exhibitors (that were not at the 2013 show) and show maps.
