NTP Celebrates 2011
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.”
National Trade Productions managed 10 face-to-face events in 2011, providing services that included attendee marketing and acquisition, exhibit and sponsorship sales, housing/registration services, and onsite exposition and conference management. Highlights include:
American Public Transportation Association (APTA's EXPO): Increased sponsorship sales, exceeded show revenue goals and sold two rail car sponsorships on the show floor for the first time since 2005.
American Public Works Association (APWA): Increased booth sales by 15%.
