Board of Directors and SWIAEE History

SWIAEE Chapter History

SWIAEE history starts with two separate chapters: one from Southern California and the other from Southern Nevada (including Las Vegas). In the 1990's each chapter's board of directors decided to merge as Southern California had many show organizers, but few suppliers and Las Vegas had no show organizers, but lots of suppliers.

Arizona came on board years later. Collectively, we have the largest group of convention centers, hotels and amazing weather in the country!
