Exhibitor Advisory Council (EAC)

The EAC was formed to provide advice to the Transportation Research Board (TRB) on the TRB Annual Meeting Exhibit, to facilitate communication between exhibitors and TRB, review exhibit-related policies; and represent the interests of the TRB Annual Meeting exhibitors. Plan to meet with your EAC members at TRB 2014!
