Your organization is invited to participate in this event!  The New York Contractor Exchange event goal is to facilitate networking and professional development for residential and small commercial building contractors.  

This two-day event begins at 10 a.m. on Monday and ends at 2 p.m. on Tuesday. A hosted reception will be presented on Monday evening for registrants and sponsors. General sessions on Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning will feature interactive panel presentations. All meals and hospitality are included in the two-tier registration fee.

Billboard Display. All hosts and sponsors will receive a billboard display around the perimeter of the meeting room (see graphic). We believe this special recognition is a more environmentally sustainable alternative to the traditional table-top or pop-up exhibit. All sponsors and supporters will be invited to provide a “camera ready” graphic file which will be reproduced on stretch fabric and erected using light-weight material. This solution reduces the carbon emissions associated with each sponsor and supporter transporting their own display.
