At TSNN, along with making sure our database is the most comprehensive event resource on the internet, we will continue to bring you networking opportunities and industry insight. We believe that online networking websites such as Linkedin and Facebook are fantastic tools for our industry. They don't replace the need to meet, rather they speed up the networking process and encourage growth in the industry.
Obviously, the marketplace agrees. While online networking sites have established jaw-dropping multi-billion dollar valuations and staggering unique visitor growth rates, the 2008 CEIR Index reports a steady industry growth rate, and forecasts a very promising outlook for the trade show sector. Ultimately, it is through face-to-face events such as trade shows, conferences, seminars and business meetings where long-term trust is built and relationships solidify.
What do you think?
We just posted a question on Linkedin where you can debate the issue. Are online networking sites such as Linkedin positive or negative for the growth of the event industry?
To answer, go here: http://www.linkedin.com/
Plan ahead… save time and money on your next event.
