The Satellite Broadcasting & Communications Association (SBCA) has announced SkyFORUM, a virtual event delivering product demos, sessions, training and networking found at traditional trade shows but without the expenses and hassles of leaving town and customers. Only a computer and a broadband connection are needed to learn, purchase products, and network with peers. Best of all, there are no registration fee to attend and the cost to exhibit is much lower than a legacy trade show. SkyFORUM will be held online November 18, 2009
Attendees and exhibitors at SkyFORUM can participate in sessions — or webcasts in the virtual world — to learn about new products, revenue streams, business channels, training and skills. Sessions will discuss new business opportunities, the future of satellite, MDU/SMATV, improving customer relations, broadband technologies and much more. SBCA’s SkyFORUM gives exhibitors a unique and inexpensive platform to reach potential customers. Confirmed exhibitors include DIRECTV, Applied Instruments, CEDIA, DSI, Installs Inc, Pace International, PPC and others. Industry suppliers can demonstrate products, introduce new technology, distribute literature, and network with decision makers, all without the expenses of shipping, drayage, hotels, and travel. As it is online, SkyFORUM brings together more decision makers who might not attend a traditional trade show.
