Spring 2018 Schedule of Events
About NEMOA Conferences
NEMOA offers direct marketing merchants of all sizes, and the vendors that service them, an affordable network to share knowledge, learn about industry trends, and connect with peers and experts in a non-selling environment.
There are no exhibits at NEMOA conferences. However, attending companies are welcome to display collateral materials at shared tables provided in the Connection Lounge. These tables are not manned and attendees can browse at their leisure. Instructions for shipping collateral to the hotel are posted here: https://nemoa.org/nemoa_spring_2018_summit.php#shipping
Please try to limit private meetings to free times, rather than competing with conference sessions or events. Thank you.
We look forward to seeing you at the conference!
