Challenge

Transforming the Caesars Forum ballroom into a full-service exhibition center began by protecting over 100,000 sf of carpeting for load-in and out. Because the lower ceilings were not designed to meet the rigging and signage needs of an expo, in-house estimates to provide a fix reached $70,000.

Solution

Working with WQA and in-house services, Fern devised a flexible, floor-mounted solution for banners, signage, and exhibit structures, saving $70,000. The process also provided an opportunity to include WQA and exhibitors on site to quickly generate concepts to enhance the look, functionality, efficiency, and connectivity of their next event.

Result

The challenges presented at Caesars Form provided WQA with an opportunity to think differently about branding their annual event. As a result of the positive collaboration on site in Vegas, Fern’s design team also led the redesign of the WQA brand that debuted at the Aquatech trade show in Amsterdam.

“Fern completely understands the needs of our association. They are keenly aware of our exhibitors’ needs and expectations. And Fern is cost-conscious, delivering great quality at an affordable price.”
