Who among us does not carry their "life" around with them in the form of a smart phone, allowing instant access to the internet, email, and the like. And now you can carry around more than 1.1 mil- lion ft² of trade-show exhibit space in the palm of your hand (or in your lap, if you prefer a tablet). It's not too early to start planning for NPE2018: The Plastics Show, May 7-11 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fla. And the Plastics Industry Association (PLASTICS) can help you start the planning process now.
