BiZBash to Launch First Southern California Event and
Meeting Planner Trade Show and Award Show at the California
Market Center on June 27th |
Los Angeles, California - November 9, 2006
- David Adler, C.E.O. and founder of BiZBash Media,
announced today that his company will expand its highly
successful, “Event Style” trade show and
award show for meeting and event planners to the West
Coast on Wednesday, June 27, 2007 at the California
Market Center in Los Angeles.
BiZBash, the largest Web site in the world for ideas
and resources for meeting and event planners, will host
the one-day show so that Southern California’s
event organizers and planners will be able to hunt for
new ideas and resources on an exciting, interactive
trade show floor, network with the best event vendors
in the business, participate in engaging professional
development courses, and experience top entertainment
from the area’s best performers. That evening,
BiZBash will honor the creative talent behind the best
events of 2006 at the first Southern California Event
Style Awards, which will also take place at the California
Market Center.
BiZBash’s New York Event Style Awards were featured
on the front page of the Wall Street Journal.
Last year, BiZBash bestowed honors in the following
categories: Best Content/Program, Best Entertainment
Program/Concept, Best Fresh Idea, Best Gift Bag, Best
Invitation Design, Best Lighting Design, Best Overall
Catering at an Event, Best Overall Event Decor, Best
Staging/Set Design, Best Tabletop Design, Best Use of
Tent Design, Best New Product, Best New Venue, Best
Corporate Event Concept, Best Nonprofit Event Concept,
Best Event PR Strategy, and Best Use of Technology.
BiZBash also inducted two industry pioneers into its
Event Style Hall of Fame.
David Adler commented, “I am thrilled to bring
our Event Style Show and the Event Style Awards to the
West Coast. When we launched BiZBash in Southern California
last February, with the rollout of a new Web site and
magazine, the marketplace welcomed us warmly. Introducing
the trade show and awards show to this market is a logical
next step in BiZBash Media’s evolution. To that
end, we are building on the momentum created by our
New York BiZBash M&C Meeting and Event Style Show
and our Event Style Awards which began six years ago.
We have a wonderful team in place in Southern California
to lead the charge. I couldn’t be happier.”
The sixth annual BiZBash M&C Meeting and Event Style
Show takes place today at Pier 94 in New York City.
This year marks the biggest Event Style Show yet, with
more than 300 exhibitors and 2,500 attendees expected.
The New York Event Style Awards will be held on Wednesday,
March 28, 2007 in New York City.
