Coverings 2014, the international tile and stone exposition, has issued a “Call for Speakers and Presentations” in search of conference speakers and professional development seminar leaders. Approaching its 25^th year, Coverings will be held April 29—May 2, 2014 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

Known for its comprehensive speaking and education programs, Coverings seeks authorities in the categories of architecture and interior design, fabrication and installation, green building, retail sales and distribution to submit proposals for one or more topics. Proposals from individuals as well as teams are accepted.   

“As we prepare for the show’s 25^th Anniversary, we’re planning on bringing together the most knowledgeable and distinguished industry experts to Coverings,” said Karin Fendrich, Coverings show director. “This is an aspect of the show that’s a significant draw — about half of show attendees attend at least one session. We’re excited to continue the success of this program with best-in-class speakers providing education on key, timely topics.”

Presentation and speaking proposals should be submitted at www.coverings.com/education. The deadline for proposals has been extended to September 9, 2013.
