SPAM WARNING: Trade Shows are notoriously targets for phishing and other spam emails promoting ways to purchase the attendee list or a hotel room. AENC does not charge for (or sell) our attendee list. We will send the full list of attendees out to Exhibitors in the days leading up to the event (when the list actually exists). Also, the only room block we currently have is the Sheraton Raleigh Hotel at the link above. If you see another email advertising hotel rooms that is not from AENC.
