INDIVIDUAL TRADESHOW AUDIT: Individual Project
Purpose: The purpose of this assignment is to audit or review tradeshow from the perspective of an event planner. You should observe all aspects of the tradeshow, no longer only as an attendee, but now as if you are going to be running this specific event in the future.
Document what was successful at this event, as well as what needs improvement. In addition, creatively brainstorm what “other” added amenities might enhance the experience of the attendee.
