The mission of the NAB Exhibitor Advisory Committee (EAC) is to establish and maintain a cooperative relationship between the National Association of Broadcasters and its exhibitors at the NAB Show; to represent and assist exhibitors in their dealings with the NAB, voicing their ideas and concerns; to participate in the assessment of vendors and technologies to best serve the needs of exhibitors and the NAB; to counsel the NAB in defining and positioning the NAB Show in a manner mutually beneficial to attendees, sponsoring organizations and exhibitors alike.
The EAC is working on your behalf to make sure the NAB Show is a successful event for all exhibitors. The committee is divided up by exhibit hall and booth square footage. Please contact your representative (contact information listed below) regarding any questions or concerns that you may have about the Show so they may address these issues with NAB for you.
The EAC is actively seeking volunteers to serve on the committee for the 2 vacant positions. Serving on this committee is an excellent opportunity for you to contribute to the vision and future direction of the NAB Show. If you are exhibiting in South Upper Hall (100-399 or 400-3000 sq. ft) and are interested in serving or wish to nominate a colleague, return the completed nomination form, due by Tuesday, January 6, 2009. Individuals will be elected following the winter meeting in January 2009.
