Las Vegas, Here We Come

Our team is heading to for The International Surface Event (TISE) in Las Vegas June 16-18, 2021. Will we see you there?
It will be among the first large shows to return to Las Vegas, and they are focused on attendee safety. Nevada’s new directive requires trade show venues to certify through the state’s Department of Business and Industry that they will follow their health and safety requirements and protocols and adhere to the prevention principles: maintain safe physical distancing, wear face coverings and practice good hygiene.

Our team will be reporting from the show floor, seeking insight and commentary from attendees and exhibitors. You can follow us live on Facebook and Instagram and see our reports daily on floortrendsmag.com and TalkFloor.
In addition, Women in the Floorcovering Industry (WIFI) will bring together female leaders in flooring on June 17, 2021, for a panel discussion from 2-2:30 pm. "Developing Goals, Setting Trajectories, and Guiding the Paths for Women in the Floor Covering Industry" will discuss finding your passion, focusing your career trajectory, and encouraging women in flooring to stay the course and thrive in the industry. The session will run on the Main Stage at TISE in-person and will also be streamed to the show's digital audience at TISE LIVE in June.
