Exhibitor Advisory Committee
(Unified Symposium and ASEV National Conference)
This committee’s charge is to serve as a communication channel between exhibitors, the UW&GS LLC Managing Committee, and the ASEV Board of Directors and staff. This committee provides guidance for aspects of the Unified Wine & Grape Symposium and ASEV National Conference. Committee members must participate in the January trade show since this is a steering committee which makes recommendations and decisions. This committee meets at least once a year in-person during the Unified Symposium, if possible. Otherwise, arrangements are made to meet by conference/video call.
This committee is composed of a current ASEV board member as Chair, ASEV Executive Director, ASEV Event and Trade Show Manager, and six (6) exhibitor members (3-year term) to represent a range of services or products and for both the vineyard and winery, as possible.
