CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2014 will host the inaugural CONEXPO-CON/AGG Young Leaders Event, which will bring together up-and-coming industry leaders to share ideas and build relationships for the future. The event features a luncheon with keynote speaker.

Contractors, producers, fleet managers, distributors and others involved in the construction industries who are under 40 years old are encouraged to participate; it’s also an ideal opportunity for companies to spotlight their emerging leaders.

The CONEXPO-CON/AGG Young Leaders Event, set for Wednesday, March 5, 2014, provides an opportunity for these future leaders to take a quiet break from the hectic show floor to engage with each other, to learn from seasoned veterans and to expand their industry networks.

“CONEXPO-CON/AGG is the perfect place to recognize the excellence of our next generation; it’s where the industry gathers and where the next generation of new technologies is on display,” stated Megan Tanel, show director.

The event has widespread industry association support and is sponsored by Construction Equipment magazine’s “Under 40 in Construction Equipment Awards.”

CONEXPO-CON/AGG runs March 4-8, 2014 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, USA.

“Our young leaders can also participate in focused education while at the show as well as find the equipment and products that will help them achieve continued success,” Tanel said.

Event details will be posted on the show website: www.conexpoconagg.com.
