The hustle-and-bustle in the main lobby of the Bellagio in Las Vegas is a sight to behold. At all hours of the day and night there always are throngs of people passing in and out of the hotel.
A little further back in the hotel in late April the activity was just as brisk as Uponor held its biennial 2014 Connections Convention that brought together the company’s contractor, wholesaler, manufacturers rep, supplier and engineer partners, as well as other invited guests and employees for a day-and-a-half of wall-to-wall networking and education — not to mention plenty of fun along the way. This year’s gathering drew more than 900 people to Uponor’s eighth convention. Contractors made up the majority of the crowd (26% of attendees).
