Our featured guest is Kyle Corcoran, the WQA Exhibit Manager for the WQA Convention & Exposition, coming up July 28-30th in Las Vegas.

"One of the buzzwords in the industry is a "hybrid event," says Corcoran. "That's what WQA 2021 will be, so we'll have the normal in person trade show that everyone is used to, but we will also have the hybrid piece, or the online portion to accompany that in person (event)." 

In this episode, we will talk with Kyle about the trade show, both virtual and in person, what to expect on the trade show floor, and how there is still time to book booth space at the Convention, but space is limited.
