Sponsoring and exhibiting at the ASTD 2010 International Conference and Expo is a cost-effective way to generate leads and build relationships with more than 8,000 workplace learning and performance professionals. Being face-to-face with new, potential and existing customers saves you money versus traveling to see each of these client types — EXPO provides you with the venue, the time, and the opportunity to prospect new business with niche audience.  View Attendee Profile to see who attends.
