3. EDUCATION: No show gives you more professional speakers and top ranked Government officials to present relevant information worth thousands to attendees.

4. DELEGATES: With the highest attendance, including more than 800 operators, Marketplace is the one show that brings together all of the industry segments together, and has for 35 years.
