===== NEXPReS Display =====


==== Overview ====
A large display board is being designed for conferences, demonstrations, open days or temporary display at your institute. Set-up takes approximately 15 minutes and can be done by one person, although it's more easily set up by two people. 

NEXPReS will arrange and pay for shipping to your institution or meeting site; you are required to arrange and pay for return shipping to JIVE or to the next scheduled location.
