Sagamore Ballroom 1-2
Doug Emslie will share his unique perspectives on the Tradeshow Industry.  He has a unique perspective, having started, scaled, and sold a large enterprise, and then restarted from scratch. Fresh off a successful TrailCon, Doug has lots of interesting (and often humorous) thoughts about the next few years of our business.
