Coverings Connected Set for April 20-23
ARLINGTON, Va. – It’s not quite the same as a stroll down miles of aisles (or a post-show walk down Bourbon Street), but the online version of Coverings 2020 will offer plenty of education, new products and connections with exhibitors
Coverings Connected, the multi-session online event, will take place April 20-23, 2020, via coverings.com to provide attendees with digital access to learning opportunities via live webinars, tile and stone trends presentations, on-demand content, and an online showcase for tile and stone exhibitors from around the world.
The online show will appear on the same dates as the analog New Orleans event canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
“Our goal is to support Coverings 2020 exhibiting companies by providing them with an opportunity to feature their products and announcements in a digital environment,” said Jennifer Hoff, president of Taffy Event Strategies, LLC, the event management firm for Coverings.
“Similarly, attendees of Coverings Connected will be presented a variety of online offerings, such as live webinars, on-demand content, live chats, and the opportunity to set up appointments with exhibitors.”
Educational sessions will cover a range of topics; CEUs will be available for architects and interior designers for selected sessions.
Highlights of the webinar series include:
• “Innovation: The Key to Success Through Color and Design Trends,” by Leatrice Eiseman, CSA, executive director for the Pantone Color Institute and the Eiseman Center for Color Information and Training;
• “Acting on the National Tile Contractors Association (NTCA) Culture Survey – Leadership in the Face of COVID-19,” by Wally Adamchik, president, FireStarter Speaking and Consulting; and
• “Economics 20/20,” by Elliot Eisenberg, PhD, and economist.
Attendees can also engage with 900+ exhibitors through online Exhibitor Galleries and the New Product Showcase. Exhibitor information will be made available during and after the Coverings Connected event dates for attendees to search products, view exhibitor press releases, set appointments, watch exhibitor videos, and learn the latest trends in the industry.
