The Unified Wine & Grape Symposium program features sessions and
a two-day trade show.
Meeting the Needs of the Industry
Since the American Society for Enology and Viticulture (ASEV) and the California Association
of Winegrape Growers (CAWG)
joined forces to create the Unified Wine & Grape Symposium in
1995, it has become the largest wine and grape conference in the
nation. And while we’re proud of the size of the Unified
Symposium, it is our established reputation for providing
outstanding, current and breaking news, as well as information
and content that we find most rewarding. As one of the industry’s
premier gatherings, the Unified Symposium presents a vital
platform to focus on the issues shaping today, while interfacing
the topics and trends shaping the future of grapegrowing and
winemaking.
A Proven Format
By combining a trade show with a broad spectrum of sessions, the
Unified Symposium provides attendees direct access to all the
latest information. The Unified Symposium also provides an
excellent forum for active networking between registrants and
suppliers. Winemakers and grapegrowers not only have a chance to
renew and make new friendships, but to actively discuss and
debate information and ideas that directly influence their work
and success.
Trade Show
Every January, the Unified Wine & Grape Symposium trade show is
home to over 650 suppliers to the wine and grape industry. With
nearly 14,000 industry professionals attending and 750 booths,
the Symposium is the largest wine & grape industry conference and
trade show of its kind in North America.
Representing the Entire Industry
The Unified Symposium organizers have a long and distinguished
history of providing vintners and growers with the information
they need to remain competitive. The conference represents the
collective experience, knowledge and background of the entire
industry. We collaborate with a diverse committee of industry and
academic professionals to bring you a program with timely topics
and compelling speakers.
