TIA to the Industry: Make News at NXTcomm

Last year, our industry asked TIA and USTelecom to work together and once again provide a single event to showcase the business and technology of communications, information and entertainment. We heard you, and next month – from June 18-21 -- we will deliver, by launching NXTcomm in Chicago at McCormick Place. Now we want to the industry to make history at NXTcomm.

As a NXTcomm co-owner, TIA is issuing a challenge to the industry so that the show’s debut can be even more successful: make NXTcomm your event by making industry news – with product launches, company announcements and unveilings. With more than 450 exhibitors, 200,000 net square feet of exhibit space and more than 100 educational sessions, no other industry forum can provide a better setting for the convergence of so many growth industries. No other industry event can come close to attracting all the key players – manufacturers, suppliers, carriers, service providers and content creators – under one roof.

Traditionally, all eyes are focused on June for companies to announce corporate news, introduce new technologies and services, and launch new products. The launch of NXTcomm, the industry’s single and most comprehensive venue for the convergence of communications, IT and entertainment, once again gives companies the best news-generating forum to which Wall Street, the press and analyst communities and the industry at large will pay close attention.

As an added bonus, TIA is making it even easier to make news at NXTcomm, by providing TIA Network readers the benefit of free NXTcomm registration (a $150 value) if you register using a special “TIA1” code. To receive free registration, visit NXTcomm registration page and enter code “TIA1” in the “Create Your 2007 Registration” box.

Participate in NXTcomm. Make it the place where the world sees and hears about your products, your services, your launches, your innovations. Reap the rewards of standing out at the one event where the latest technologies driving the converged communications and entertainment industry are unveiled.

Thank you,
