ATTENTION EXHIBITORS: The MMA is aware that unaffiliated entities sometimes claim to have a list of MMA Annual Meeting attendees available for sale. In the past, some of these emails have even included the MMA logo, taken without permission from our website. Please note: The MMA is the ONLY source of a list of MMA Annual Meeting attendees, and the MMA will provide that list to exhibitors after the meeting. Do not respond to any email offering an MMA attendee list from any MMA event. If you receive an email about the MMA and are uncertain about its legitimacy, please contact Advertising and Trade Show Manager Karen LaPointe at 617-426-7272.
