The owners and producers of the ConExpo-Con/Agg exposition recently signed a new cooperative agreement that replaces the joint venture agreement signed in 1999. Under the agreement, ConExpo-Con/Agg will continue to be produced every three years through 2020. The show will be managed by the Association of Equipment Manufacturers, which has entered into a non-compete arrangement with the International Concrete and Aggregates Group.
The exposition is the largest of its kind in the western hemisphere and its last show, in 2002, was ranked tops by Tradeshow Week magazine of all industry shows in the U.S. that year. ConExpo-Con/Agg 2005 is expected to attract more than 100,000 attendees and use 1.85 million net square feet of exhibit space. It will be held in Las Vegas, March 15-19.
