ITEXPO IP Communications Trade Show Continues Solid Growth

ITEXPO East 2012 in Miami was TMC's best show ever with over 200 booths and over 8,200 attendees. Conferee attendance for ITEXPO East increased more than 50% from 2011, resulting in dozens of standing room only sessions at ITEXPO and collocated conferences such as HTML5 Summit, M2M Evolution, Business Video Expo, Super WiFi Summit, and 4GWE. As an example, here's a photo I took at the jam-packed Ingate SIP trunking conference session:

Even with the additional third day of exhibit hall hours, foot traffic was pretty good - on a Friday no less. I heard from several exhibitors saying it was their best ITEXPO ever.

TMC's next show, ITEXPO West 2012, is scheduled to take place on October 1-4, 2012, in Austin, Texas, (the 'new' Telecom Corridor) which will be the second time in Austin after moving from Los Angeles.

“ITEXPO has enjoyed a long and successful run in South Florida since TMC first brought its event there in 2001. The impressive turnout we saw this week validates the content we’ve offered, and the comprehensiveness of the solutions showcased on the expo floor,” said Rich Tehrani, TMC CEO and Conference Chairman. “Today – more than ever – ITEXPO is the world’s leading B2B communications and technology event, and we’re looking forward to carrying this momentum over to Austin this fall.”
