Congress 2010 forms partnerships

June 15, 2009 – Landscape Ontario has announced two new strategic partnerships for its annual trade show and conference – Congress 2010. The Canadian Fence Industry Association is returning to host Fencecraft and a new partnership has been formed with the Ontario Parks Association who will co-locate their annual Explorations trade show and education conference with Congress 2010.

The 38th edition of Congress will take place January 12 – 14, 2010 at the Toronto Congress Centre and all horticulture, landscape, fencing and parks professionals looking to strengthen their business relationships are invited to mark these important calendar dates.

“Co-locating events is a strategic decision designed to expand existing business and to present opportunities for new business from allied professional,” says Paul Day, Congress 2010 show manager. “By collaborating with successful partners we are able to drive more business to vendors, position them in front of potential new customers and give them new opportunities to be seen by the industry movers and shakers who are defining the future of the game.”

Each year, Congress attracts more than 10,000 industry professionals, with 72 percent citing product and technical knowledge as the primary reason for attending the event. Direct interaction on the trade show floor solidifies business relationships. The conference sessions offer a comprehensive range of professional development programs for industry practitioners and businesses.
