Demonstrators Now Being Selected for David Coursey's Showcase '99
The Best Product Launch Venue in the Industry is Looking for the Hottest Products and Technologies to Be Featured at Showcase '99, January 17-20, 1999
SAN MATEO, Calif., Aug. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Upside magazine and David Coursey have been selecting demonstrators for the third annual Showcase conference. David Coursey's Showcase '99 is the annual launch pad for the industry's hottest products, technology's and services for the Internet, personal computing, and communications, which will take place January 17-20, 1999 at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel & Marina.
Companies who have a hot product targeted at consumers -- released or unreleased, alpha, beta, near shipping or shipping -- are invited to submit it for consideration. Fewer than 80 products and companies will be selected by noted industry analyst David Coursey for this exclusive event. Over the years, Coursey's picks for his conferences have included some of the most successful products in the industry.
''I look for products and technologies that have the potential to change our industry or change the way customers do things,'' Coursey explains. ''While the ''gee-whiz'' factor is important to how a product can be shown effectively to our audience -- the long-term impact on the marketplace is more important.''
To submit a product or technology for Showcase, complete the online product submission form at upside.com. Demonstrator coordinator Tiffany Freeman can answer questions about the process. Please contact her via e-mail at tfreeman@upside.com.
