StonExpo 2004

Words: Dan KamysStonExpo 2004, scheduled for October 28-30th at the Los Angeles Convention Center, promises to be yet another successful event at which natural stone and design industry professionals will find the latest products and services, technical education, and networking opportunities they've come to expect from StonExpo and the Marble Institute of America (MIA), which sponsors the educational programming and several networking events.

The facts that this is the first-ever West Coast location for StonExpo, that it features a significantly expanded educational programming provided by the MIA, and that it has a reputation for showcasing the industry's finest exhibitors are combining to make StonExpo 2004 a can't-miss event.

StonExpo continues to attract the industry's leaders because it is the natural stone industry's premier trade event and the only one produced by the stone industry for the stone industry. All proceeds from the event are channeled back into the natural stone industry through support of industry education and natural stone promotion programs.
