The 2022 theme Together Towards Tomorrow highlights how facility services are vital to keeping the workplaces and commercial spaces we share safe and healthy. TEGG and Linc Service contractors are leaders in their communities, helping businesses as they adapt to new ways of working, while keeping facility assets and operations cost-effective.

Gold Sponsors Armstrong Fluid Technology, Convex, Emerson, Raiven, and Sunbelt Rentals were also featured in the Virtual Exhibit Hall.

The keynote speech was delivered by Mark Matteson, a best-selling author, consultant, and motivational speaker whose own career started in HVAC maintenance with a Linc Service franchise. Educational sessions covered topics important to sales, operations, management, and technical professionals, and included sessions with safety experts and sought-after sales coaches.
