You really can’t Beat It!
AC/DC’s You Shook Me All Night Long,
Michael Jackson’s Beat It and the theme
from Hawaii Five-O heralded Interwire
2015 at the Georgia World Congress
Center, Atlanta, USA, last week.
Visitors were met by the soundtracks
playing on the MGS booth where a
baseball-pitching robot drew a large
number of people during the three-day
exposition.
While the ideally positioned booth did
attract a large crowd on all of the days,
new product launches from Clinton
Instruments, an entire inline display from
NDC Technologies, and an impressive
exhibit from AIM also added to what
can only be described as a very well
received exhibition.
Add to this an abundance of conference
papers, and all the ingredients were in
place for a big shot in the arm for the
American wire and cable industry. Also
noticeable was a large contingent of
exhibitors from China.
Outside of the center, the official
reception at the nearby College Football
Hall of Fame provided refreshments
for exhibitors and visitors alike, while
also providing an ideal networking
opportunity at the end of the first day of
exhibits on Tuesday.
