Two long years it may have been in the planning, but the anticipation was clear for all to see before the start of this year's Interwire last month. On that opening Tuesday morning, attendees and exhibitors alike – some of which only meet up at exhibitions around the world – had been talking, meeting socially and all looking forward to America's largest and most important wire and cable exhibition. Thanks largely to the ladygreeting themat thedoors of the Georgia World Congress Center, they were whipped into a partial frenzy as they headed inside on day one. Her enthusiasm in greeting everyone clearly had the desired effect as the escalators swelled to carry the early birds inside. And as the hustle and bustle of the day continued, she was quick to grasp the mood, ensuring that everyone passing her had a smile on his or her face. The numbers may well have been similar to those of two years ago, but it was clear to see that this show plays a major part in the calendar. David Bell Editor
