Repositioned
for Success
mprinted Sportswear Shows (ISS) events have been mainstays in key regions
throughout the United States, so it is with great excitement that I announce
two key realignments within the ISS portfolio for 2014.
The first is a new partnership between ISS Orlando and Emerald Expositions'
newly acquired event, Surf Expo. To facilitate this partnership, we are rescheduling ISS Orlando from April 3-5 to Sept. 4-6 in a co-location with Surf Expo's
summer show. Combining these two events will change the Florida market for a
trade show experience.
Great synergies exist between ISS and Surf Expo, with crossovers in the resort
wear and gift markets that are sure to bring additional business, leads and networking opportunities to attendees and exhibitors of both shows. From beach transfers
on T-shirts to sublimated designs on surf boards, you will see everything on display
with this collaboration between ISS and Surf Expo.
You should know that the opportunity to expose our exhibitors and attendees
to a qualified, potential buying audience of nearly 25,000 by co-locating with Surf
Expo greatly excites me and the rest of the ISS staff. We look forward to you taking advantage of this opportunity and joining us for the first annual collaboration
between these two entities.
Our second realignment involves moving into the Nashville, Tenn., market to
host an annual event. Although we announced the launch of ISS Nashville this
past December, I want to give everyone an update. The overall support from this
industry's manufacturers and suppliers has been phenomenal. We have heard from
top exhibitors from all sectors, including apparel, screen printing, embroidery, sublimation and digital decorating.
With a "who's who" of exhibitors already signed up for ISS Nashville, attendance numbers have started to quickly surge. I have received phone calls from decorators in Ohio, Illinois, Missouri, Georgia, Tennessee, the Carolinas and beyond,
who are eagerly awaiting this inaugural event. The resounding response is that not
only will this event be close to where they live and work, but they'll get to see
what's new in the industry while also spending the weekend in a great Southern
city where there is always something to do within walking distance.
From the entire ISS and Impressions staff, thank you again for attending and
supporting all of our events.
