As COVID finally winds down, our beloved trade shows have started back up! As many of you know The New York Design Center’s (an IFDA NY Sponsor!) What’s New What’s Next will be held from Sept 20th to Oct 1st with the first in-person Days on Sept 29th and 30th.
IFDA will be participating in the show by running our IFDA Selects program where we award vendors for exceptional products in categories such as home decor and sustainability, among others.
Would you like to be an IFDA Judge?
If you are not already attending or would like to become more involved, we are looking for you to volunteer as judges. The IFDA Selects group will carry out evaluations on the first day of the show, Sept 20th. We meet in the morning at about 8:45AM and usually wrap up after we present the awards to the winners, which generally gets us out of there by around 2PM. It is a truly rewarding experience to acknowledge the hard work of our winners.
If you have interest in becoming a judge please click below to reply before Sept. 10th or reach out to Erin Nova at erinnovator@gmail.com
