CHICAGO — NeoCon, the leading platform and event for the commercial interiors industry, June 10-12, 2024 at THE MART in Chicago, invites "thought-leaders" to submit proposals for its onsite and virtual programming, as well as its year-round educational offerings.

“NeoCon is the epicenter of commercial interior design––a hub where people, products, and programming converge to inspire innovation,” said Nubia Henderson, NeoCon’s Director of Programming. "Our programming has earned a reputation for providing invaluable insights into the subjects, trends, and movements across the commercial design sphere and beyond.”
