RETC 2009 to be bigger, better than ever beforeFrom ABC to ZED, more than 100 exhibitors are already signed up to RETC 2009, which takes place June 14-17 at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas. A fair proportion of tunnelbuilder readers will be attending the conference, and we will be keeping you up to date with developments. Because of the resilience of the tunnelling industry during the current recession, it is widely expected that RETC 2009 will break the 2007 record of 125 booths and 1,334 attendees, see www.retc.org/Exhibitor/exhibitorList.cfm.Prospective exhibitors and sponsors of RETC 2009 can download a prospectus at www.retc.org/Exhibitor/RETC_Prosp.pdfLas Vegas is the ideal venue for most people, with international and domestic flights to McCarron airport. For the Europeans, who are inveterate fare seekers, the long distance destination of Los Angeles, with ample domestic connections from both LAX and Burbank to McCarron, is the generally most economic choice.
