October 2014, at the Sands Expo Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, continue to grow at a record pace. S
usan A. Hurley, general manager at Expo Management comments: “We have already sold 811 booths to 611 companies from throughout the USA and 17 other nations around the world including Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, the Czech Republic, Germany, India, Italy, South Korea, Mexico, the Netherlands, Poland, Singapore, Spain, Taiwan, Turkey, and the United Kingdom.” Susan continues: “Exhibit space sales have moved way past
last year’s 794 booths and we are closing in on the all-time record of 821 booths sold in 2007. A large part of the Expo’s growth is in the machinery and tooling section, which will be 2,000 net square feet larger this year, and the addition of nearly 80 new exhibiting companies, which add freshness and variety. This is good news for the Expo and good news for the industry. We are also expecting a strong turnout of buyers. It seems like everyone is talking about the ‘Vegas Show’”.
