An Event to Remember: The 2023 World of Modular
MBI’s 2023 World of Modular conference and tradeshow was held in April at the luxurious Bellagio Resort & Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. World of Modular has long been the industry’s best chance to meet new contacts, learn from industry experts, and reconnect with old friends, but this year—as MBI celebrated 40 years of serving the commercial modular construction industry—the excitement was palpable. And with over 1,500 attendees, it was MBI’s largest event ever.
Over four days, participants attended multiple keynote addresses, chose from dozens of educational breakout sessions, got leads and contacts from over 160 exhibitors, taught and inspired dozens of visiting high school and college students, and were entertained with parties, golf, and numerous networking opportunities.
To all who attended: Thank you. We can’t wait to see you next year in Orlando!
