TMC president and conference chairman Rich Tehrani firmly believes that today’s uncertain economic environment is actually having a positive impact on the trade show.
“ITEXPO is the global communications event that offers people on both the buying and selling sides of the market the opportunity to gather and exchange solutions and ideas for using communications technology to improve their profitability. Vendors, resellers, and service providers attend the event to find solutions and to meet potential customers. Users of the technologies come because they know there are extremely cost-effective telecom and communications solutions that can deliver a rapid ROI – and improve the bottom line almost immediately,” explained Tehrani.
“In this economy, cost-effectively improving communications becomes more of a necessity than ever before. And with the reasonable travel costs available to Miami at the moment, a trip to the show is a comfortable fit for most budgets when you consider the potential return,” Tehrani added.
