"These publications have a combined 239 year track record as the industry's definitive news source, maintaining a high standard of editorial excellence while also introducing new products and techniques to professionals."
"It is a great honor to work with Hanley-Wood Exhibitions as they relaunch this show," said James H. McGraw, IV, McGraw-Hill Construction's Group Publisher. "We are confident that our relationship will be a good fit, and look forward to working with them."
The partnership also enables the editorial staff from McGraw-Hill Construction to provide input on the direction and content of the show's multi-track, solutions-driven educational conference curriculum.
"This agreement will help to strengthen our tradeshow and conference and serve to emphasize our commitment to the industry," said Paul Samargedlis, Manager of Business Development. "We are excited to have McGraw-Hill Construction's expertise as part of the show. The partnership should result in providing an unsurpassed industry event for our exhibitors and attendees as our show moves forward."
