The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) and the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) have signed a five-year lease to hold the annual RECon trade show at the Las Vegas Convention Center starting in 2013.
“We look forward to continuing our great relationship with ICSC through 2017,” said Chris Meyer, vice president of sales for LVCVA. “RECon is the premier industry gathering in commercial real estate, and we are confident they will continue to have success here in Las Vegas.”
According to a statement from LVCVA, RECon, held in Las Vegas earlier this year and in 2010, attracts more than 30,000 exhibitors and attendees and contributes more than $31 million in non-gaming economic impact each year. A global retail real estate convention, RECon focuses on issues and trends in the shopping center industry while providing networking, deal making, and educational opportunities for industry professionals.
