Make Plans Now
To Be at GSE Expo
The premier event dedicated to the ground support equipment
industry returns to Las Vegas this September.
A
s the calendar flips to May,
the average person begins
thinking about the end of
the school year, vacations
and other summer plans. But for those
of us in the ground support industry, the
summer season means the International
GSE Expo is quickly approaching.
It takes a lot of teamwork to put on a
world-class event, and so we have been
working side-by-side with our partners
at IAEMA to continue delivering an
expo that meets the needs of GSE manufacturers,
ground handlers, airlines,
airports, FBOs and other key stakeholders
in the industry. In fact, plans for
the 2023 International GSE Expo began
as soon as the successful 2021 show
concluded, and I'm excited to share
our progress.
This year's event will be held Sept.
26-28 at the Las Vegas Convention
Center, which offers close proximity
between the outdoor and indoor
exhibits. As of April, more than 80,000
net square feet of occupied space
has been sold.
A total of 157 exhibiting companies
have already been booked to date. These
companies will be showcasing the latest
products, services and solutions for our
market, including baggage and cargo
tractors; deicing equipment; fueling
equipment; passenger boarding solutions;
pushbacks and utility vehicles;

GPUs, PCAs and air starts; lav and potable
water units; headsets and communication
solutions; and much, much more.
Not only is the International GSE
Expo attracting manufacturers, but
hundreds of attendees are already
making plans to be at the show. We are
seeing a steady pace of registration,
indicating a strong attendance figure at
the 2023 edition of the event.
Of course, a staple of the International
GSE Expo is the ability to network
with customers and other members
of the industry. To further facilitate
networking, be sure to sign up for the
official golf outing on Monday, Sept. 26.
Participants will love the new venue as
Bali Hai Golf Club offers a par-71 course
with a challenging layout and gorgeous
scenery. The golf course is located right
on the Las Vegas Strip, adding convenience
for golfers coming from the convention
center and nearby hotels.
Lunch, an awards reception and
prizes are included in the golf outing.
But space is limited, so be sure to register
for the event as soon as possible.
As the largest show dedicated to the
GSE industry in North America, the
International GSE Expo is a must-attend
event for learning what's new and
what's next for the future.
In addition to booth space, be sure to
inquire about sponsorship openings and
other opportunities to make sure your
