While attendance was down comparably to previous years, the industry’s most sought-after companies sent their decision-makers with the intent to ink deals.”

Zepeda continued: “What sets this event apart is its new Smart Event structure that serves as a virtual wrap-around to the live event, providing buyers and suppliers an additional four weeks to hold follow-up conversations with potential new business partners discovered onsite.”
