ESX Expo Floor Over 70% Sold Out

New and returning exhibitors rushing to reserve space for nation's third largest security show

NASHVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The show floor for the 2013 Electronic Security Expo (ESX), scheduled for June 17-21 (expo: June 19-20), is already more than 70% sold out, as new and returning exhibitors prepare to share quality conversations with the industry’s leading security integration and monitoring companies.

“The event gives us the opportunity to connect with the industry's best security companies, and we expect to talk with real decision-makers on the show floor.”

As the only major national trade show focused exclusively on the needs of security integration and monitoring teams, suppliers show up ready to talk about much more than product/service features. Quality conversations review how products/services can help increase company revenues, profits and enterprise value.

There are over 140 exhibitors already locked in for the 2013 show, representing the latest and greatest in: Video Surveillance, Access Control, Intrusion Detection, Fire Detection, Central Station Equipment and Software, Identification Systems, Home and Building Control, IT Networks, Storage Back-up and Security, Residential and Commercial Audio/Video, Installation Accessories, Test Instruments and Supplies, Security Robotics and more.

"It is a pleasure to participate in ESX year after year as there is always a new and growing attendance, allowing me to reach more and more people with my existing product line as well as my new products,” says Bill Pitcher, vice president of sales and marketing at GEM Electronics and veteran ESX Exhibitor.

“The attendees are all very knowledgeable and understand exactly what my product line offers. It is helpful to have in depth discussions as to system installation difficulties they may be having so I can develop more problem-solving products that will eliminate those difficulties."

In addition to exhibiting veterans like GEM, 30 new exhibiting and sponsoring companies will have a presence at this year's show.

"We're excited to be exhibiting at ESX this year," says David Gagne, CEO of Winland Electronics. "The event gives us the opportunity to connect with the industry's best security companies, and we expect to talk with real decision-makers on the show floor."
