Wire Expo 2016 Review
“I am happy to report that those
expectations were met and exceeded by
virtually every measure. Each aspect of
the event was outstanding: the quality
of the speakers, presentations, and the
exhibits, as well as the tours and the
many social events was top-notch.
“It was rewarding to see the high levels of
attendance, participation, collaboration,
and overall enthusiasm from start to
nish. The energy and the brisk activity
on the exhibit oor was exceptional
throughout the show. It was equally
satisfying to hear the immediate positive
feedback on every aspect of this event.
