Event Description


THE CAI GREATER HOUSTON CHAPTER TRADESHOW IS A ONE-DAY BUSINESS-FOCUSED EXPERIENCE FOR COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION PROFESSIONALS, VOLUNTEERS, AND THEIR KEY PARTNERS. THIS IS THE PLACE WHERE RELATIONSHIPS ARE CREATED AND IDEAS ARE BORN INTO ACTION! 


WHY ATTEND
Because face-to-face interaction with product and service representatives is an invaluable aspect of attending the Tradeshow, conflict-free exhibit hours enable you to consult one-on-one with representatives of companies from across the country. Meet the leading vendors of the products and services you use every day and explore new offerings to meet specific needs within your communities.
 
WHO ATTENDS
The Tradeshow is open to all community association management professionals, homeowners living in community associations (condominium, homeowners association, housing cooperative), and business partners serving these communities (fees apply).
