More than 7,000 INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS Descend upon Los Angeles for the 18th ITEXPO

Attendees will be coming from companies of all shapes and sizes, and from all around the world to join us for this exciting three-day event.

INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO is the premier event in the IP Communications industry. Since our first event held in 1999, over 80,000 IP Communications professionals have come to ITEXPO to learn, exchange ideas, develop new contacts, and meet with vendors like you on the exhibit floor. The result is one of the most unique atmospheres you will find at any event, with a bustling exhibit hall filled with knowledgeable people doing business and making deals.

There are many reasons why ITEXPO is the premier event in the IP Communications space, including the most relevant topics, the convenient bi-coastal locations, and the unsurpassed marketing support from TMC.

10% of the attendees at our free training seminar at ITEXPO purchased gear right out of the room

  —Chris Kendrick, Dir of Business Development, Grandstream

But more than anything, what draws more buyers to ITEXPO than any other event is the in-depth educational content supported by the industry’s leading publications - INTERNET TELEPHONY Magazine, IMS Magazine, SIP Magazine, and Customer Inter@ction Solutions. Both the comprehensive conference curriculum, and the free workshops and seminars, are built to provide information of the highest quality, educating all areas from the most knowledgeable developer down to the CEO of a financial institution exploring options to improve his business’ profitability.

Attendees from 111 different countries have attended ITEXPO in the past year, truly making it the Global IP Market Place. And with the convenience of an international destination such as Los Angeles waiting for us in September, we fully expect ITEXPO West 2008 to feature attendees from all around the globe. Why spend your time and money traveling the world when we bring the International buyers directly to you?

 
 

and nearly every type and size of company imaginable, no matter who your target audience is… you’ll find them at ITEXPO.

111 different countries
Attendees from 111 different countries attended ITEXPO
in the past year.

4,000 different companies
over 4,000 different companies were represented at the last ITEXPO, covering the full gamut of the industry.

72% Are Decision Makers
Nearly 3 of every 4 attendees at ITEXPO are Vice Presidents or higher, with thousands of C-Level execs and presidents in attendance.

Because we get such a wide variety of new customers, one thing that will always make ITEXPO unique is the number of new people you will meet compared with other events in the industry. At some events, it seems the only customers who come to your booth are those who have an appointment. At IT Expo, you’ll have access to thousands of potential customers in the exhibit hall, at the receptions, and in the keynote sessions. And since more than 1/3 of all attendees said this is the only event they plan to attend this year, that this is your only chance at all to meet with roughly 2,500 attendees.

With the number of new customers you will meet at INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO, you will find the best ROI of any show in the industry. In fact, many exhibitors at ITEXPO have completed enough sales to more than pay for their entire exhibit....before the show was even over. Because of nature of the audience - high level attendees with a definite interest in learning more about products - the audience at ITEXPO delivers more revenue than any other event. That is why some of our repeat exhibitors have taken to calling ITEXPO “the ROI show”.

There were actually too
many press people, making it
difficult to engage them all.

  — Jill Schmidt
Vice President
S&S Public Relations

There will be hundreds of members of the media and industry analysts, looking to get the latest information on the industry’s leading companies and any new developments. The event will attract press from major daily newspapers, industry publications, blogs, Web sites, broadcast media, research firms, and VCs — all there to cover the event and learn more about your company.

What better place to make your major announcement than at INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO?

Not only is ITEXPO the largest event in our industry this year, but its also the first of the busy fall season. With hundreds of press and analysts in attendance, ITEXPO is the ideal location to make major announcements or to launch your new product. By making your announcements at ITEXPO, you’ll not only get the attention of the massive crowds and huge numbers of press in attendance, but you’ll also get a jump on the competition who are waiting for another show later in the fall to make their announcement.

Highest Quality Educational Event

The reason the attendees of INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO are the best you'll find at a trade show is because they come to the event to learn — both in the sessions and from you on the exhibit floor. They are serious about enhancing their knowledge and are at the event because they want to make their business better.

The reason they choose INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO is the unparalleled quality of the educational courses offered. As the publishers of the industry’s leading magazines — INTERNET TELEPHONY Magazine, IMS Magazine, Unifed Communications Magazine, and Customer Inter@ction Solutions, and the industry’s leading and most informative Web site, TMCnet, we are in a unique position to serve as the thought leaders of this emerging industry. Our team of editors spends literally months gathering abstracts from respected companies and building a comprehensive program built on providing true education, not on satisfying an exhibitor's desire to deliver a canned pitch in their session.

This focus on quality educational content delivers only the most serious attendees, who, in turn, become the most dedicated customers.

The exhibit floor at INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO is the most productive in the industry, with thousands of attendees seeking out business solutions. Other, less focused events might have bigger exhibit halls, with bigger booths that stretch as far as the eye can see. But without the traffic, is the huge expense of participating in those shows worth it?

ITEXPO works because it delivers traffic to the hall, and all of these attendees have the time to make their way to your booth. That means your booth will have visitors - often more traffic than you can handle. But that translates into more leads, more sales and more business - which is why you are exhibiting in the first place.

Stretch your marketing dollar further and generate the ROI you need by exhibiting at ITEXPO.
