THE CAI GREATER HOUSTON CHAPTER TRADESHOW IS A ONE-DAY BUSINESS-FOCUSED EXPERIENCE FOR COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION PROFESSIONALS, VOLUNTEERS, AND THEIR KEY PARTNERS. THIS IS THE PLACE WHERE RELATIONSHIPS ARE CREATED AND IDEAS ARE BORN INTO ACTION!

Meet the leading vendors of the products and services you use every day and explore new offerings to meet specific needs within your communities.
WHO ATTENDS
The Tradeshow is open to all community association management professionals, homeowners living in community associations (condominium, homeowners association, housing cooperative), and business partners serving these communities (fees apply).
