(Alexandria, Va.)—March 6, 2018—The 2017 Argentum Senior Living Executive Conference & Expo has been recognized among the most recent class of “Fastest 50” and “Next 50” events by Trade Show Executive (TSE) magazine for its significant expansion and continued growth.
According to TSE, winners of the “Fastest 50” awards are selected annually based on the highest percentage of growth in a variety of categories, including net square feet of paid exhibit space, number of exhibiting companies, and number of attendees.
