LAS VEGAS — Recharger Magazine’s World Expo confirmed that the annual industry trade event remains a truly global gathering, with 26 percent of the more than 3,500 attendees from countries outside of the United States.
“We are thrilled that we have been able to provide the global industry with a top-quality show that offers the most in-depth education around. Recharger Magazine pioneered World Expo 13 years ago when the industry looked quite different. As it always has, this year’s Expo provided a mirror of the industry in 2008. North America will remain at the forefront of the remanufacturing industry as it continues to innovate and adapt to new market conditions and World Expo will be the show that accompanies this development and brings the industry together,” said Patricia Ames, Recharger Magazine’s director of global events.World Expo’s 80-plus educational offerings provided the most comprehensive array of training and education in the industry, and pre-show events and “Expo Extras” continued to grow in popularity. The Lyra full-day forum attracted attendees serious about gaining an edge for their businesses. Recharger also assembled a team of top industry innovators from FM Audit, TCO Partners, DocuAudit and Prospect Builders to produce a well-attended first-ever Managed Print Services Market Leaders Summit. Executive Outlook Passholders gathered for an exclusive senior management keynote and reception with Jimmy Pitaro, vice president and general manager of Yahoo! Sports. Passholders also gained access to the business briefing presentation of the Lyra Research white paper, The State of the Aftermarket Printer Supplies Industry, commissioned by Recharger Magazine.
The first PrintFleet User Group Meeting brought diversified attendees to World Expo to begin building a network of support for future collaboration. “We are excited to continue to leverage this knowledge as the network grows and users continue to collaborate. What perfect symbiotic relationship for users and PrintFleet alike,” said Kate Kittner, PrintFleet marketing specialist. Meanwhile, Parts Now! and DataVault’s PDI+ training offered attendees the ability to become certified in the latest credential available from CompTIA.
