ICPI Committee teleconference call schedule
ICPI
Share
The 2011 Annual Meeting is being held over the same dates as the ICON Expo, Con/AGG-CONExpo show and NCMA Annual Meeting. To accommodate members that exhibit at one or both of these shows and who also
attend NCMA meetings, the ICPI Board of Directors approved a condensed meeting schedule. Committee meetings have been shortened to limit the time members are off the show floor. In order for committees to be able to get through their agendas, there will be a series of conference calls/webinars for each committee prior to the actual in-person meeting. You will receive an email which contains a link for you to access the online portion of the conference call. If you are an ICPI member and would
like to join a Committee conference call, please send your email address to the appropriate staff liaison by 10 a.m. EST Friday March 11, 2011.
