Call to Exhibit:
Attendees of the Symposium represent a wide array of water professionals in Tennessee, and exhibiting at the Nineteenth
Tennessee Water Resources Symposium provides
a great opportunity to interact with potential key customers.
Last year about 300 professionals from Federal and
State water resource agencies, consulting firms, and universities
attended the symposium.
An exhibit fee of
only $350 gives exhibitors an excellent opportunity
to showcase new technologies and meet new contacts. The exhibit area, which is co-located with
registration and breaks and located
immediately adjacent to the meeting rooms,
ensures that you will have an opportunity to interact
with a majority of the attendees.
