Comdex 2005 tradeshow cancelled

Posted on Thursday, March 31 2005 @ 19:17 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

Comdex, formerly one of the biggest high-tech tradeshows, has been cancelled again. In 2004 it was cancelled for the first time after 25 years of tradition and this year it won't take place neither.

In a statement, MediaLive said it had been working "diligently to determine how Comdex can best meet the future needs of the industry."

"Through our continued discourse across the community of IT buyers, vendors and other stakeholders, we've made significant progress," the San Francisco-based company said. "However, considerable work remains to build an industry event to serve the industry as it matures with the same success that Comdex did in its infancy."
