ABACE2012 Adds Exhibit Space as Hangar Floor Sells Out
"There has been an outpouring of enthusiasm and support in the region and across the international business community for ABACE2012 and demand for
exhibit space has exceeded even our expectations," NBAA President and CEO Ed Bolen said recently, as the weeks count down toward the Asian Business
Aviation Conference & Exhibition (ABACE), scheduled for March 27 to 29. Exhibit space on the hangar show floor for the event has sold out, and
NBAA has added a first-of-its-kind, enclosed Exhibitor pavilion to accommodate additional companies. Exhibitor space and sponsorship opportunities,
including features in printed event materials and prominent signage at the show, are still available. For the Exhibitor application and a list of
previous Exhibitors, visit:
