Important ITEXPO Happenings

itexpo-logo.jpg
I wanted to share some important highlights for Internet Telephony Conference & Expo happening this week. I should point out that we have over 200 exhibitors participating including Asterisk / Digium, Cisco, Packet8, ShoreTel, Skype, and more. Seems like ITEXPO is the week for important telecom / VoIP news to break, including Skype looking to hire a new CEO. I'm excited for Startup Camp. Now for some important ITEXPO happenings:

Monday at ITEXPO West 2010

The doors open to ITEXPO West 2010 today! Exhibits open tomorrow, but there are many other events today! Including the Opening Keynote by Alcatel-Lucent and CA Technologies later this afternoon, and the Welcome Reception, sponsored by ALOE Systems.

**Staying at the Omni Los Angeles Plaza Hotel, Sheraton Los Angeles Downtown Hotel, or The Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites? Complimentary Shuttle Service is being provided to and from the L.A. Convention Center! Take time to catch up with colleagues and network on your travels!

Don't Forget! When you arrive onsite, there is a NEW location for Registration. ITEXPO West's Registration Area is located in the Lobby of the South Hall and the Exhibits are located in South Hall K.
Below are details and information that will help you plan your Monday at ITEXPO West. As always, if you have any questions before the show, contact Frank Coppola or visit ITEXPO West 2010.
