Why should you exhibit?

The American Physical Society will hold its 2009 March Meeting, March 16–20 in Pittsburgh. We are expecting an attendance of more than 7,000 of the top scientists involved in physics research and applied physics throughout the world. The March Meeting offers your company a valuable opportunity for one-to-one interaction with physicists from industry and universities, in both private and government laboratories who are involved in making and/or influencing purchasing decisions for their companies and institutions. In addition to marketing the exhibit show to commercial exhibitors, we will be promoting the show to government agencies and laboratories.

For complete information on the technical program and housing for the March Meeting, visit the APS homepage (available at the end of January).
