After a Hiatus, a Bustling Vision Expo West Returns to Las Vegas |
 |
LAS VEGAS—The headline in the Sept 25 Show Daily from Vision Expo West summed up the mood for attendees and exhibitors: “A Bustling Show Floor.” As Expo got into full swing on Friday, VM’s Gwendolyn Plummer, one of Vision Monday’s onsite reporters of our Expo Show Daily observed, “Vision Expo West has been big, bustling and busy. With a massive show floor and plenty of events to choose from, there’s no question that attendees are here, confident and optimistic. Because Vegas is so familiar to all of us Vision Expo regulars, this year’s show has felt something like a homecoming, and those who are in attendance are here to browse, buy and make up for lost time.”
