Responding to increased demand, the second WaterSmart Innovations Conference and Exposition is offering an expanded expo hall for prospective exhibitors for this year’s conference, slated for Oct. 7-9 in Las Vegas at the South Point Hotel and Conference Center.
   The more than 180 exhibit spaces at WSI this year mark a 12 percent increase in booths over last year’s inaugural conference and expo. More than 1,200 professionals from 43 states and 17 nations participated in the first WaterSmart Innovations, held in October 2008, making it the world’s largest and most comprehensive conservation-specific conference of its kind.
   This year, WSI will hold refreshment breaks in the expo hall, as well as a cocktail reception Oct. 8. More information about these opportunities to reach WSI attendees, as well as an updated listing of exhibitors, is available on the Web site.
