IBEX Compliance and Coffee Hosted by ABYC and Rulefinder.net

The American Boat & Yacht Council (ABYC) and Rulefinder.net invite all 2012 IBEX Exhibitors to “Compliance and Standards Coffee” on Wednesday, October 3 from 9 a.m. – 11 a.m. Meet and network with compliance experts from around the globe while enjoying free coffee and pastries.

Exhibitors are encouraged to come hungry with topics in mind and walk away full from picking the best minds in the industry. Leaders from both ABYC and Rulefinder.net will be on hand to talk about topics such as the Standards and Technical Information Report for Small Craft Supplement 52 that was released in July 2012, CE and ISO compliance, and much more!

“This is a great opportunity to spend some time in a more relaxed setting with those of us who work in standards, regulations and compliance,” said John Adey, ABYC President. “For domestic and international compliance exporting regulations, the top notch leaders will be there with your morning shot of caffeine,” said Wieger de Wit, co-owner of Rulefinder.net.

When: Wednesday, October 3rd, 9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m.

Where: The Compliance Pavilion on the IBEX Show floor

What: FREE Coffee and Pastries

Why: FOR EXHIBITORS to learn about new compliance rules and regulations, and speak directly with leading experts.

“Compliance and Standards Coffee” begins one hour before the IBEX show opens to allow exhibitors more personal attention and meaningful conversations without interrupting booth business. The free refreshments will extend until 11 a.m. for show attendees who are interested in spending some time with compliance experts.

ISO and ABYC standards as well as Canadian rules, RINA, MCA and NZ/AUS rules are available at www.rulerfinder.net.
