NTP in Action

Andrew Ortale joins National Trade Productions as Executive Vice President.  In this newly created role Andrew will be responsible for Business Development and work strategically with the Event Services teams to ensure outstanding client service and client relations.

National Trade Productions closed out 2011 with a great celebration—in 2012. Following a tradition of January holiday parties, NTP hosted more than 80 staff and “plus-one’s” last Friday to toast the conclusion of a successful 2011 event season. View the photos from the evening here. 

“We’re proud of the great work we delivered this past year,” said Robert Harar, CEO of Alexandria-based National Trade Productions. “The past few years have been challenging for the exposition industry, but we’re now seeing the beginning of the recovery. In fact, attendance for Coverings 2012, staging in April in Orlando, is currently trending 15% ahead of the previous show in Orlando in 2010.”

Over 1400 professionals from the federal government and military, consulting and contracting firms, universities and associations gathered in Washington November 30 – December 1 at the CEIL’s 2011 GOVgreen Conference and Exposition.

“Our verified attendance increased by almost 30% over 2010,” according to Ann Seltz, President, Center for Environmental Innovation and Leadership. “Exhibits grew by 70%.”

NTP is pleased to announce that it will provide full show management services and produce the 26th International Electric Vehicle Symposium. Hosted by the Electric Drive Transportation Association (EDTA), EVS is the largest electric drive exhibition in the world.
