Exhibitor 2007, You should have gone. Part I


Fabric, Extrusions, and Plasmas oh my! I haven't seen this much fabric since my last trip to Macy's. Wow!

This years Exhibitor show was the biggest show the publishers of Exhibitor magazine have produced. Attendence was more than 9% over last year. Below are a few of the things that stood out for me.

  1. Some of the exhibit management companies were very impressive. Exhibit Works "non booth" was very open and inviting. They separated themselves from the "look at me" trying to hard booths.
  2. Exhibitgroup Giltspur was interesting, they created a lounge atmosphere that encouraged networking. The champagne and chocolate strawberries didn't hurt either. Again, very clean open presentation. My only dig on them is that their canopy while interesting, you could not make out the company's name. So much for branding something cool.
  3. SoftSpace had a Sahara look. Sheer fabric bright colors and some very cool kiosks incorporating flat panel displays.
  4. Another cool space was Globotech. If you are in to bright colors, interesting shapes, at a reasonable price these guys are for you. Very POP like.

Wait there's more… I will be back tomorrow with another post.

Happy Exhibiting.
