The Exhibit and Event Marketers Association (E2MA) announced they have contracted
with the Association of Equipment Managers (AEM) to provide exhibitor-appointed contractor (EAC) registration services for four shows in 2013 and 2014.
The shows for which E2MA is handling EAC registration for the AEM are AG Connect, World of Asphalt, ICUEE-The Demo Expo and ConExpo-Con/AGG.
AG Connect takes place Jan. 29-31, 2013, at the Kansas City Convention Center in Kansas City, Mo. AG Connect brings together the very latest in equipment, technology and ideas from all areas of agriculture production from all around the globe. World of Asphalt is scheduled March 19-21, 2013, at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center in San Antonio. World of Asphalt is an international exposition and education resource for the asphalt, pavement maintenance and traffic safety industries.
ICUEE-The Demo Expo is scheduled Oct. 1-3, 2013, at the Kentucky Exposition Center, in Louisville.

ConExpo-Con/AGG is slated March 4-8, 2013, at the Las Vegas Convention Center and showcases the latest construction equipment, products, services and technologies.
E2MA has developed the EAC online registration system to ease the process by which exhibitors notify show management of their intent to use EACs for show move-in and move-out.
E2MA’s EAC Registration services include:
• Distribution of pertinent show information to all EACs through the E2MA web portal and weekly newsletter.
• Exhibitors designate their EACs online using the E2MA EAC registration portal.
• E2MA obtains all required paperwork from registered EACs.
• Organization / distribution of all EAC access credentials.
• E2MA representation on site.
