    Service World Expo Meets in Tampa

    Dec. 5, 2022
    Enterprising heating and air conditioning contractors convened at the Tampa Convention Center for a week of focused learning, listening and networking.

    Home services contractors seeking to improve and grow their businesses convened in Tampa, Fla. Oct. 18-21 for the seventh annual Service World Expo, designed and hosted by Service Nation and Service Roundtable.

    The event combined keynote presenters with seminar presentations by contractors and vendors. Keynoters were Heisman Trophy winner/ex-NFL quarterback and commentator Tim Tebow; Chris McChesney, global practice leader of execution for Franklin Covey; and Green Beret and author, Lieutenant Colonel (ret.) Scott Mann, founder of The Stability Institute. Each keynote presenter brought practical and impactful topics to the main sessions that contractors and exhibitors could take home and implement right away.

    Events included a yacht cruise and dinner sponsored by Daikin/Goodman/Amana, a night out at American Social sponsored by Service Fusion and bowling at Splitsville sponsored by 12 exhibitors. Breakfast and lunches also gave contracting business professionals time to mingle and share ideas.

    Contractors met with more than 200 exhibitors during two, three-hour tradeshow events.
