Skyline Genesis Event Marketing, a leading New York City based trade show exhibit and event marketing company, is using its expertise in event promotion and marketing to help with the hunt for treatment and a cure for Spinal Muscular Atrophy, a devastating genetic disease. “We’ve come to know about this crippling disease from within our company family and we want to rally together in support and do what we can to help” stated Glenn Diehl, president of Skyline Genesis.
On the tradeshow floor, the growing challenge has become how to accommodate all of the wireless devices that seek to connect to the Internet. In addition to tablets, smart phones, and other Wi-Fi enabled devices, there are cellular aircards, 3G Mi-Fi devices and third party 3G routers that connect to the Internet via a 3G signal and then rebroadcast in the 802.11 spectrum. When thousands of these devices are trying to connect simultaneously to Wi-Fi on the convention floor, the result is interference that can hinder the ability for everyone to actually connect to the Internet. Complicating matters further, Mi-Fi’s and routers are often set to emit the highest volume and can completely displace the signal of neighboring exhibitors.
The goal of Smart City Networks and any convention center is to control this interference so that everyone can connect to the network. To ensure a high quality experience for everyone, Smart City builds and manages robust Wi-Fi networks and must work to limit interference issues.
While it may seem to be everywhere, Wi-Fi is a product of significant infrastructure, wiring and maintenance. For example, a convention center needs a Wi-Fi network with numerous wireless access points, since a single access point can only handle a finite number of users effectively. Convention centers need to provide and maintain a network that has adequate bandwidth for every event – small, medium, large or mega.
Skyline Genesis Event Marketing, a leading New York City based trade show exhibit and event marketing company, attended the recent 2011 NACS Show (National Association of Convenience Stores) with two of their clients, Nestle Waters North America and Vita Coco. “It’s interesting that both of these clients’ booths had some connection to water and we were able to make a big splash for them at this show” stated Glenn Diehl, president of Skyline Genesis.
The Nestle Waters exhibit is a double deck structure featuring two meeting rooms, 4 projection screens and 7 product display stations each highlighting the variety of beverage brands marketed by Nestle Waters, NA. The exhibit also included a very large, four sided, hanging banner structure which was visible throughout the exhibit hall. According to Jim Donker, VP Marketing for Nestle Waters, NA, “this was our best trade show ever and our best trade show exhibit ever.”
The Vita Coco exhibit, a 20x20 exhibit, features sampling stations and a 10x10 sand pit for beach volleyball. “We are very pleased. Skyline Genesis hit the nail on the head with this design,” stated Jeff Rubenstein, VP Consumer Marketing for Vita Coco. He added, “We plan on expanding our trade show program in 2012.” Glenn Diehl commented “it’s not every day you see a beach volleyball game in Chicago, indoors.”

Skyline Genesis Event Marketing will be exhibiting at this year’s 2011 Event Design Summit held at the New World Stages in New York City, June 15th-16th. The Event Design Summit is held every year in New York and other major cities across the United States and features speakers and thought leaders in the event, trade show and face-to-face marketing community. This year Glenn Diehl, President of Skyline Genesis Event Marketing, has been asked to speak on “Designing for an Event Space”. This is a new agenda topic and Diehl will speak about challenges in designing in both the event and trade show arenas.
