The presenters will reveal and expand upon the survey responses from over 800 professionals in the tradeshow industry, highlighting such key findings as:

– Virtual events have come of age proliferating, growing and gaining
momentum;
– A major paradigm shift is occurring in the events industry and where
it is headed;
– Virtual events are projected to become an $18B+ industry in 5 years;
– Green focus is drawing companies toward virtual as a way of reducing
their carbon footprint;

to an existing show or physical event; and
– Content is still king, followed by ease of use and cost savings.

“There are several major forces at play, creating the perfect environment for virtual tradeshows and online marketplaces to flourish moving forward, including the explosive growth of social networking and collaborative technologies, combined with the overall reduction of corporate travel budgets and need for creating new revenue streams and customer loyalty,” said RD Whitney, CEO of Tarsus Online Media. “And, the early adopters of virtual events are already beginning to reap the benefits.”

“As evidenced by the survey results, there’s a sea change taking place within the tradeshow industry and Onstream Media is seeing a lot of interest and demand for our MarketPlace365 technology as a result,” said Randy Selman, President & CEO, Onstream Media. “We’re well positioned to be one of the leading providers of virtual tradeshow and online marketplace technology due to our self-provisioned, no upfront cost model and integrated search engine optimization, social networking and other lead generation features.”
