After an extensive RFP process, the BMO Centre at Stampede Park has named Global Convention Services as its preferred display company provider, as well as the exclusive external business provider for decaling services beginning January 1, 2024.

As the preferred display company provider, Global Convention Services brings the expertise to fully support trade shows, conventions, and special events, with services such as floor plan design, full pipe and drape, or hard wall installations, material handling, advanced warehousing, custom booth displays, carpet, executive furniture and much more.

This includes such applications as, but not limited to, floor decals, window applications, pillar or wall wraps and elevator/escalator decaling.

You can contribute to our cause by visiting our official Movember team page: https://ca.movember.com/team/2451921

Here is why Chris is raising money: Globally, more than 1.4M men are diagnosed with prostate cancer each year. Movember is working to reduce the number of deaths from prostate cancer, and I want to help them get there. Help me stop men dying too young. For those that may not know, I receive the news in the spring of 2019 that I had prostate cancer. Being diagnosed early was critical and thankfully my Urologist was one of the best in Atlantic Canada and after weighting my options I chose surgery. I am now 4 years free and while I know there is a possibility it may rear its ugly head again, getting regular test is one of the best ways to prevent being caught off guard.
Thank you for supporting our fight to reduce the number of deaths from prostate cancer.
