Join us at next year ’ s conference
Kocer said he will attend the conference again next year , “ I enjoyed it . It is a great vibe , very friendly .” He felt there was a need for his engineering consulting services , “ Our booth got many visitors who came through the exhibit area .” He concluded it was a way to “ catch up with old friends , meet new people , and answer questions .”
Hemingway said he didn ’ t meet any immediate prospects but that , “ I wasn ’ t there to sell anything . I was there to support our awesome community .”
LeFriec smilingly shared that with this year ’ s successful golf game finale , they expect the event to grow next year . “ We had a record turnout of 32 players . We hope the golf course , combined with the newly added ( Novation-sponsored ) free beer on the 19th hole , will continue to attract the number of players . The thing that holds most back from playing is that golf is hard . This golf outing will get popular once people realize that we all stink , except for those rare few !”
Overall , the I-90 Aerospace Corridor Conference and Expo is fun and friendly , and most manufacturers , suppliers , and service providers create valuable bonds at the annual conference .
