展会报告(Show Reports):
The EDS Board thanks everyone who took the time to respond to the survey regarding EDS 2022. Your input is reviewed by the Board to learn how it may improve your business experience at the only industry event that brings together manufacturers and their distributors and rep firms for face-to-face meetings. In particular, the Board looks at the remarks made in the comment section. Such comments can be useful in clarifying questions that some attendees may have about EDS. Below are some of the more common questions and the Board’s response.
Why is EDS always held in Vegas rather than other cities?
The primary reason is that Vegas is the only city that has hotels with sufficient number of suites and meeting rooms to meet EDS’ specifications. The typical conference hotel in major U.S. cities has a limited number of suites and meeting rooms. Even in Vegas, there are only a limited number of hotels that have the requisite number of suites and are willing to sell those suites to EDS. The other factor is number of meeting rooms in a hotel. In other cities EDS would need to book multiple hotels or part of a convention center to get sufficient meeting room space.
There are some resort hotels, particularly in the Orlando area, that have an adequate number of suites. However, these properties are more family-oriented and are isolated from restaurants, entertainment and the airport.
Other convention cities, such as Chicago and New York, are vastly more expensive and lack the number of suites needed.
