What Sponsors and Exhibitors Are Saying:


“Dallas Baptist University (DBU) has been an exhibitor at The HRSouthwest Conference for over ten years and we would never consider skipping it! The Conference is attended by our specific target audience, the HR decision maker! This is the perfect opportunity for us to have that direct conversation about their training needs and about what we can do to develop a customized solution that will satisfy those specific needs. We see this particular Conference as a unique opportunity to begin relationship building not only with those who attend and stop by our booth, but also with other exhibitors as well. This targeted visibility is definitely good for our business! I have never attended a better organized event! They add a whole new dimension to "customer service!”

Sandra Reid, Chair, Graduate School of Business, Dallas Baptist University – Dallas, TX

“The HRSouthwest Conference is the annual Event of the Year and every year for us. We have been attending since forever and would not miss it for anything. It is the best HR show in the country, the best run and attracts decision makers. In addition it is a wonderful opportunity to keep up to date with the ever changing infrastructure of benefits, healthcare and risk management. Your workshops and speakers are top notch. Keep up the great work.”

As a vendor and sponsor, we are given a great opportunity to visit with a stellar group of HR professionals that have clear ideas on what products and services they need to make their companies the best they can be. The conference is an ideal way to network with prospects, clients, and industry peers, all in an inviting, well organized, and action packed environment. I encourage companies that have real value to offer these 1000+ attendees to spend the time and money to exhibit. The quality and quantity of real leads is great and is a sure way to increase your overall pipeline.”
