I recently returned from Las Vegas to attend TISE. I must admit, a few months ago when I made the decision to go I was excited but still a little apprehensive. But by the time I was in the airport, I suddenly enjoyed the feeling of being “normal” again. And once I entered the Mandalay Bay, it felt good to be back.
I think this was the sentiment felt by most who attended the show this year. While everyone knew it would be an intimate setting due to the circumstances of the pandemic, I think exhibitors and attendees were pleasantly surprised with the energetic vibe in the air. Industry members were happy to be back greeting customers, meeting new people and networking. Informa did a great job of taking the first step in reuniting the industries. Look for some show highlights in the feature running in this eMagazine.
