IT&ME Motivation Show Plans New Format, Venue for 2010

The 2010 IT&ME Motivation Show will feature a new schedule and move to McCormick West here, a cutting-edge convention facility that debuted in 2007, according to plans unveiled at the 2009 event, which wrapped up Oct. 1 at Chicago’s McCormick Place.

The annual show will maintain its traditional three-day schedule in 2010, but will open with a dedicated education day for attendees followed by two full days of exhibits. The change is designed to expand the educational and networking opportunities for attendees via one full day of seminars and keynotes that do not conflict with exhibit hours, and maintain a full 16-hour exhibit schedule at a reduced cost for exhibitors, who will be able to cut one day out of their exhibit time and travel schedule.

The 2010 IT&ME Motivation Show is scheduled for Oct. 12-14. This year’s show drew more than 8,000 buyers and 1,000 suppliers representing worldwide travel destinations, as well as a variety of incentives, awards, promotional products and other merchandise.
