Innovations 2001 Information

Now entering its 16th year, INNOVATIONS is the largest business-to-business trade show in Northern Virginia, home of the Washington area's fastest growing and most dynamic business community. Presented by the Fairfax County Chamber of Commerce, INNOVATIONS will return on October 24, 2001 at Fairfax County's premier exposition venue, the Capital Expo and Conference Center, in Chantilly.

As the region's premier business event, INNOVATIONS is a magnet for senior executives and managers looking for the right tools to ensure their° organizations succeed in today's competitive business environment. More than 50% of INNOVATIONS 2000 attendees were senior level executives and managers, and 35% of attendees had primary decision-making authority for purchasing at their company.

After 14 years in Tysons Corner, INNOVATIONS moved to the Capital Expo and Conference Center last year and the response from exhibitors and attendees was extraordinary. Attendance records for the trade show were shattered when nearly 4,000 attendees crowded the Exhibit Hall to check out the goods and services offered by 240 exhibitors. Many of those attendees enjoyed an outstanding lineup of speakers that included nationally renowned business and political leaders like Steve Forbes of Forbes Publishing and John Sidgmore of WorldCom.

With 15 years of trade show experience, the Fairfax County Chamber has created an event unlike any other in the region. INNOVATIONS 2001 will highlight the Washington area's leading and emerging IT, Internet and telecommunications firms in two special showcase pavilions. The two tech pavilions flank the center of the trade show floor, where attendees will find the region's leading companies in finance, law, government contracting, healthcare and general business.

The trade show will also feature several of the Chamber's popular speakers programs and networking events, featuring national business and political leaders. Plans include an IT Series breakfast, FAME Series luncheon, two Biz EssentialsTM professional development seminars and an exciting keynote address by a nationally recognized business expert.

Trade show hours are 9:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. and admission to the Exhibit Hall is free. In addition to 250 exhibits, INNOVATIONS 2001 will include Tech Tutorials with hands-on demonstrations of the latest technology products and services, a Book Center featuring renowned authors, live webcasts from a studio on the show floor and hourly drawings for valuable prizes.
