Digital Retailing Expo 2005
Author: Bill Gerba on 2005-05-12 09:31:39
For those of you who haven't heard, this year's
Digital Retailing Expo is coming up next week (May 18th and 19th) in Chicago. The show is organized around
digital signage,
in-store television networks,
narrowcasting,
interactive kiosk applications, and anything else that might fit under the
digital retailing moniker.
While
I'm not a huge fan of trade shows, this one looks to be picking up
steam, and in terms of growth and performance, will likely mirror the
industry as a whole. If digital retailing continues to expand at
its currently vigorous pace (estimated at between 18-35% CAGR over the
next few years), the Digital Retailing Expo will likely do quite
well. If things don't go quite as swimmingly as expected, they
could be in for some trouble.

You'll
notice that WireSpring won't be exhibiting. But don't worry - our
own Mike Smith will be roaming the floor and schmoozing with key
partners and clients in attendance. If you'd like to meet up with
him while you're there, send an email to
sales@wirespring.com, or open a live chat by clicking the "Live Help" link at the bottom of this page.
When
you get back, let me know what you thought of the show. Past
attendees have expressed reactions ranging from "worthless" to "great,"
with the majority falling somewhere in the middle, but I'd like to know
if that opinion is changing.
