MAKE THIS THE BEST SHOW: Babypalooza has grown because parents love the atmosphere and the information they receive. We have morphed from just an expo to a conference with lots of mini-sessions happening throughout the day.
Please think of what you can do at your booth to engage the parents. They don’t just want to get a brochure they want to talk to you and learn about your products and services so please make sure your staff brings their A- game!!
