Annual TSW Fastest 50 Fete Heads to Las Vegas

Staff -- Tradeshow Week, 5/23/2005

The third annual Tradeshow Week Fastest 50 gala weekend will be held in Las Vegas Oct. 28–30.

The latest edition of the event will honor the 50 fastest-growing shows in North America, based on growth in net square footage over the past three years. Winners of the awards will be announced in August, while top honors for the fastest-growing trade, association, consumer and overall shows will be revealed at a black-tie dinner Oct. 29.

"I am thrilled that the LVCVA is putting together such a terrific weekend for our attendees," said TSW Publisher Adam Schaffer. "Once again, we are blessed with a host city that understands and appreciates everything that the tradeshow industry represents."

A special edition of TSW, highlighting the achievements of the winners, will coincide with the event. Along with the black-tie dinner, there will be an executive conference, golf tournament and a series of receptions honoring the owners and managers of the winning shows.

"Las Vegas and the TSW Fastest 50 event are a perfect match," said Rossi Ralenkotter, president and CEO of the Las Vegas authority. "The LVCVA is honored to be part of TSW Fastest 50."
