Vision Expo West content to be delivered through the ShopVISION Platform

The Vision Council and RX, the organizers of Vision Expo, today announce that Vision Expo+, a free digital extension of the Vision Expo experience that debuted at Vision Expo East 2021, will be offered next week following Vision Expo West from September 27 to October 3 and will feature online showrooms from Vision Expo West’s exhibitors and recorded Vision Expo West content. Vision Expo+ will be delivered through ShopVISION, a new global sourcing platform.

“We are excited to once again offer an extension of Vision Expo in the digital space through Vision Expo+,” said Mitch Barkley, Vice President of Trade Shows and Events at The Vision Council, co-owner of Vision Expo. “Our efforts to bring Show content online and offer many of the product discovery experiences that attendees expect at the in-person Show to a worldwide digital audience reflects our commitment to accommodate members of the vision care community from around the globe and provide more ways for the community to experience Vision Expo West. Vision Expo+ is also a great way for those who were at the in-person Show to check out panels or discussions they may not have been able to fit into their schedule while on-site.”
From Monday, September 27 to Sunday, October 3, the week after the in-person Show concludes, Vision Expo+ will offer a number of virtual experiences, including online showrooms from Vision Expo West’s more than 280 exhibitors and recorded Vision Expo West content. All events taking place at The Seen, the main stage destination for collaborative learning, including EYE2EYE Series discussions, will be recorded and available to view on the ShopVISION platform.
