The Exhibitions & Conferences Alliance (ECA), the advocacy voice of the business events industry, recently celebrated National Voter Registration Day on September 17 by announcing the launch of ECA Votes. This one-stop voter registration and education resource is designed to empower everyone in the industry to make their voices heard on election day.

The ECA Votes platform offers a suite of free resources to ensure that everyone in the industry is fully prepared for the 2024 election, including:

  • Voter registration. Powered by vote.org, the ECA Votes website enables anyone across the country to register to vote in just a few minutes.
  • Policy information. ECA Votes has nonpartisan information on key industry priorities, including tax reform, international travel, our future workforce and sustainability.
  • An election webinar series. This fall, the ECA will host a free three-part webinar series that will go beyond the headlines to talk about how the election results will impact the industry going forward.

“What happens at the ballot box this November will help shape the direction of the business events industry in 2025 and beyond,” according to Tommy Goodwin, the vice president of ECA. “That’s why we need everyone in the industry to get involved and ECA Votes will help them do just that.”
