Spudman Today
2020 Show Daily
Meet and potatoes:
A sure bet for the
potato industry
By Cully Easterday and Dan Moss
Co-chairmen of the Potato Expo 2020 Steering Committee
P
eople come to Vegas to test their luck, but
everyone at Potato Expo 2020 is a winner just
by attending.
There are tons of exciting events and speakers
to learn from over the next two days. Make the
most of all Potato Expo has to offer by sitting in on
Potato Talks at the Expo Stage, getting caught up on
consumption and production trends and connecting
with the more than 2,000 potato peers, all here to
talk potatoes.
Just like the casino floor, the Potato Expo trade
show is once again the center of activity. And this
year it's even better! With over 180 exhibiting
companies and 2,000-plus potato peers, the trade
show is the place to take your business to the next
level. Hang out in one of the new Meet-up Lounges.
Scattered throughout the exhibit hall, the lounges
are convenient and comfortable places to do
business, take a break, or recharge (your phone and
yourself). Or re-caffeinate at the trade show coffee
bar to power through your day.
As always, we have a great lineup of speakers.
Kicking things off are Mike Lee and David Parker.
