It’s that time of year again - everybody’s favorite warm-winter-weather solar tradeshow - Intersolar North America and Energy Storage North America - is just a few days away. I’ll be trading the winter chill for sunny San Diego along with 10,000 of my fellow #SolarWarriors. Today's episode is geared to get you ready to go (and pumped) for Intersolar, January 17-19 at the San Diego Convention Center.

As with other major shows, I like to do a Know Before You Go (KBYG) episode to help you get oriented and better plan your time. Reminder, if you haven’t already, you can get a 20% discount to the show with code “SUNCAST” (and also get a FREE Expo Hall pass!)..so what are you waiting for?

Today you’ll hear from 3 folks intimately tied to the programming & planning of Intersolar & Energy Storage North America: Wes Doane, Vice President of Diversified Communications, shares the event's transformation journey under the new management and this year’s theme. Rudy Saporite from the Institute for Building Technology and Safety takes us behind the scenes of the crowd-favorite “Solar Games” competition - an actual live installation race where solar installers can earn up to $𝟏𝟔,𝟎𝟎𝟎 in cash prizes! And, Candace Letizia, our third guest and Marketing Director of Clean Energy for Diversified Communications, outlines features of the show designed to enhance attendees' overall experience, including an interactive app and dedicated networking spaces.

Don’t miss the Thursday night Block Party Bash!

See you there?

HMU!
