Navigating and scheduling will be a little easier for attendees and exhibitors this year at the GIE+EXPO 2013 with the help of an app.
The new app allows users to connect with exhibitors by an automatic component, as well as features a searchable database of exhibitors, sessions and speakers.
Users can also create an appointment agenda and receive updates while at the show, which is set for Oct. 23-25 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville, Kentucky.
The app is available for download for the iPad and iPhone in the App Store
