In Their Words
โOur members arenโt sitting behind desks, theyโre on job sites, solving problems in real time. The opportunity here is to give them a way to connect, share information, and access what they need without delay.โโJim Wurm, Executive Director, EACA
How Networked Is Supporting Their Vision
EACA is getting started on Networked to bring its network into a more connected, accessible environment, one that reflects how its members actually work.
The platform creates a single place for resources, communication, and member visibility, making it easier to navigate everything from operational information to peer-to-peer support. With structured spaces for different service areas, regions, and member types, it mirrors the way the industry already operates, while making those connections more immediate and actionable.
As the community is introduced, it will support faster coordination, clearer access to information, and more direct interaction across the network, extending the value EACA already delivers in a way that fits the pace of the trade show floor. Learn more about EACA and its work across the trade show industry by visiting their community here.
