U.S. HVAC&R Industry Focusing on IT Services — Report on 2022 AHR Expo

The 2022 AHR Expo was held from January 31 to February 2 in Las Vegas, Nevada, the United States, and was co-sponsored by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and the Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI). As an energetic face-to-face event after forced cancellation in 2021, the exhibition was much more successful than expected, even if some people from abroad could not attend due to travel restrictions within the framework of the pandemic. Indeed, the exhibition attracted 30,678 visitors and 1,573 exhibitors, with 281 from abroad. The exhibitors showcased their new innovations in an exhibition area covering almost 443,770-ft2 (almost 41,230 m2) in the Las Vegas Convention Center.
