HomeCOVID-19Coverings announces 'Coverings Connected' digital experience

Arlington, Va.–Coverings, the largest international tile and stone exhibition and conference in North America, will host a brand-new digital experience called Coverings Connected. The multi-session online event will take place April 20-23, 2020, via coverings.com, to provide attendees with digital access to learning opportunities via live webinars, tile and stone trends presentations, on-demand content and an online showcase of Coverings tile and stone exhibitors from around the world.

Coverings Connected will further Coverings’ mission to grow the vibrant tile and stone industry and provide selected educational opportunities given the recently canceled Coverings 2020.

“Our goal is to support Coverings 2020 exhibiting companies by providing them with an opportunity to feature their products and announcements in a digital environment,” said Jennifer Hoff, president of Taffy Event Strategies, LLC, the event management firm for Coverings. “Similarly, attendees of Coverings Connected will be presented a variety of online offerings, such as live webinars, on-demand content, live chats and the opportunity to set up appointments with exhibitors.”

Coverings show organizers have learning opportunities for all segments of Coverings attendees. They will cover a range of topics and be presented by notable thought-leaders and leading industry organizations. CEUs will be available for architects and interior designers for selected sessions. All webinars are complimentary. The full list can be viewed here.

Highlights of the webinar series include, “Innovation: The Key to Success Through Color and Design Trends,” by Leatrice Eiseman, CSA, executive director for the Pantone Color Institute and the Eiseman Center for Color Information and Training; “Acting on the National Tile Contractors Association (NTCA) Culture Survey – Leadership in the Face of COVID-19,” by Wally Adamchik, president, FireStarter Speaking and Consulting; and “Economics 20/20,” by Elliot Eisenberg, PhD, and economist.

Attendees of Coverings Connected are also able to engage with 900+ exhibitors through online exhibitor galleries and the New Product Showcase. Exhibitor information will be made available during and after the Coverings Connected event dates for attendees to search products, view exhibitor press releases, set appointments, watch exhibitor videos, and learn the latest trends in the industry.
