LAS VEGAS (January 22, 2016)—Medtrade Spring is coming soon (about 40 days away), but it’s not too late to find reasonable airfare and book a hotel to Las Vegas. This year’s show is scheduled for February 29–March 2, 2016, at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center.

Each day at Medtrade Spring is packed, starting with a full raft of 60- and 90-minute sessions on day one, plus three different workshops and a Fitter’s Course. “The 6-hour in-depth presentations are all from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Monday, February 29,” says Kevin Gaffney, group show director, Medtrade. “Check medtrade.com for a full list of all workshop topics.” 

Much like last year, educational sessions are designed to minimize overlap with Expo Floor time. “We've listened to conference attendee feedback and have incorporated changes,” adds Gaffney. “We've adjusted the schedule to allow for more time on the expo floor. We've also extended several sessions to allow for more Q&A. As an added bonus, many sessions have multiple expert speakers.”
