Pre-registration numbers for SUPERCOMM were running nearly 50% ahead of
last year, as was reported on May 13. Industry segments that
experienced the most robust growth during pre-registration were
Internet service providers (ISPs), those interested in enterprise
network products and services, local exchange carriers (LECs) and
international visitors. International carriers (PTTs) also
pre-registered in record numbers.
"To say we are delighted with these record breaking registration
numbers would be an understatement. While our robust pre-registration
numbers were a clear indication that SUPERCOMM '99 would be very
strong, we certainly had no idea that after three days they would
exceed '98's final tally," said Jack Chalden, SUPERCOMM general
manager. "With unprecedented frequency, all the communications
technology sectors represented under the SUPERCOMM umbrella are active
with product introductions, merger & acquisition activity and
technology breakthroughs - all of which underscore the success of
SUPERCOMM '99."
On-site registration for SUPERCOMM is open from 7:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
today and 7:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Thursday, and is located in Exhibit
Hall A in the Georgia World Congress Center.
SUPERCOMM, the premier annual international communications technology
exhibition and conference, is presented jointly by the
Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA), www.tiaonline.org,
Arlington, Va. and United States Telephone Association (USTA),
