Integrated Systems Europe Announces Initial and Pending Sales

Integrated Systems Europe (ISE), the new electronic systems integration conference and exhibition, has announced the sale and pending sale of nearly 50 percent of its exhibition space in the early weeks of its availability.

The new pan-European trade show, which debuts next February 3-5, has enjoyed a strong, enthusiastic start highlighted by the sale of 2,906 net square meters of exhibition space and the anticipated sale of 1,000 sq. meters more in the coming weeks. This represents almost half the available exhibition space of 7,000 sq. meters for ISE at the Geneva PALEXPO exhibition hall 6.

”We’re expecting to have a great show, and are very encouraged by the strength of early sales,” said ISE Managing Director Mike Blackman. ”The positive reaction — both from companies that have already signed up as well as from companies with whom we are negotiating — has been overwhelming.”

Underlining the show’s broad appeal, exhibition space has already been committed by more than 50 companies from nearly a dozen countries spanning Europe and North America, including Austria, Belgium, Canada, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States — as well as Bangladesh and Hong Kong.
