Re: Are Trade Shows a thing of the past?
The days of "panel" seminars being acceptible has come and gone. From what I've seen in the numerous comments across several boards on the future of trade shows, that's probably the most universal. The seminars have to be improved, more formal, more relevant, more informative.
Atlanta Forum last year brought in speakers on general business topics. Those went over well, other than being a bit early in the day for this crowd.
The live shoot demo by Spannow and crew at Cybernet got rave reviews.
I don't recall anyone even mentioning any of the panels at various shows in a positive light.
I hope there are a few show organizers lurking out there, reading along, taking notes...
