APRA & ATRA to
Co-locate Their Expositions
Two of the
leading international associations have agreed to co-locate their
respective expositions at the Riviera Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas,
Nevada on November 1-2, 2009. This major development brings together
the Powertrain Expo run by the Automatic Transmission Rebuilders
Association (ATRA) and the International Big R Show run by the
Automotive Parts Remanufacturers Association (APRA).
ATRA’s Executive Director, Dennis Madden, stated, “We are pleased
that we were able to co-locate our exposition at the same time as
the International Big R Show, which for the last seven years has
been held in Las Vegas just prior to Industry Week featuring the
AAPEX and SEMA Shows.”
APRA’s President, Bill Gager, added, “Both of our associations
believe very strongly that this will provide each other’s attendees
and suppliers with some new opportunities and will help them reach
more people. Both associations will continue to offer their broad
range of technical seminars and workshops just prior to and during
the exposition.”
