Whova Returns for BevTech 2022
ISBT will once again be using Whova as the conference app. We think you’ll agree that Whova does a spectacular job of helping everyone network, create their own personal agendas, and learn more about the great lineup of speakers in the general sessions and Technical Committee meetings.
On the app you can:
- See the full attendee list
- Access the latest program/agenda
- View a map of event locations
- Create your own personal agenda.
- Reach out to and schedule meetings with other attendees
Attendees and exhibitors should have received their Whova invitation for this year's event. As soon as you get it, you can either download the app or login to the Whova website to start browsing the exhibitor booths, connecting with other attendees, and setting up your own personal agenda as sessions are added to the app.
Please note that only registered attendees and exhibitors are given access to Whova.
Remember, we will have NO paper schedules or lists during the event. The app is the only way to access this information.

Please meet the six candidates for ISBT’s Board of Directors! You will be given the opportunity to vote for these candidates online prior to or during BevTech 2022.

At the end of that term, one of them will be elected by the board to serve as Vice President and join the Executive Committee.
We are excited to announce that, in accordance with an update made to the ISBT bylaws, all active members of ISBT (as of Friday, April 29, 2022) will be able to cast their vote for their preferred Board of Directors candidates, not just those attending BevTech.
