FAIRFAX, VA. — The National Pest Management Association (NPMA) is pleased to announce the launch of the Global Bed Bug Summit, an educational conference and expo designed to provide advanced technical training as well as management courses related to the business of bed bugs. Sponsored by BedBug Central, the Global Bed Bug Summit will be held Dec. 5-6, 2013, at the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel.
This event is a merger of BedBug Central’s North American Bed Bug Summit and NPMA’s Bed Bug Forum.
“For the past three years, BedBug Central has hosted the annual North American Bed Bug Summit. During that same time period, the NPMA also hosted an annual Bed Bug Forum. And, while the audiences for each event were not exact, it is clearly evident that a merger of these events could only serve to benefit the pest management industry,” says NPMA Executive Vice President Bob Rosenberg. “So, with that in mind, BedBug Central and NPMA have created an event that plays to the strengths of both organizations and provides the pest management community with a high caliber, comprehensive program that addresses both technical and business oriented topics.”
“While this event is new, we are pleased that it will be retaining some of the tried-and-true elements from our past Summits,” says BedBug Central CEO Phil Cooper. “The trade floor will continue to be referred to as ExpoCentral, and will remain open during sessions; the Beer Tasting and Night with the Experts will be prominently featured; and BedBug Central’s Jeff White and NPMA’s Jim Fredericks will oversee the program development. BedBug Central and NPMA are committed to ensuring attendees receive a tremendous experience – complete with fantastic content and a relaxed and fun atmosphere!”
