What types of companies will be exhibiting at ITEC?
ITEC’s exhibitors will be companies supplying anyone in the tire industry from the tire manufacturers to the tire retailers to the commercial dealers and even to some of the big users. In the past, ITEC has had between 100 and 125 exhibitors. By expanding ITEC in 2010, we expect to far exceed that number. Anyone selling to the independent tire dealer and the commercial dealer are now great prospects as exhibitors.
Who is the typical attendee for this event?
The primary target is really two-fold:
► It is the tire dealer, the tire retailer and the commercial dealers. The conference programs
we are putting together will be targeted toward them.
► We will still be appealing to and putting together programs for the tire manufacturers:
the compounder, the chemist, the mathematician, the manufacturer and the plant manager.
