THANK YOU TO LAST YEAR’S SPONSORS & EXHIBITORS:

“I had the pleasure of working with Melinda and the Container World folks in the speednetworking round. I must say it’s refreshing to be at an event that allows vendors one-on-onetime with important figures at enterprise organizations. I appreciate the 3-minute drill – givethe ‘elevator pitch’, see if it’s sinking in or bouncing off, answer a few short questions, collectthe business cards, bell rings and you’re on to the next prospect. I go to conferences quiteoften and this networking speed round is unique – I definitely want more!”

“Having attended the ‘inaugural’ ContainerWorld conference in Santa Clara, CA; I was

extremely impressed on the organization andprofessionalism displayed by Informa who produced andran the show. Of particular interest to me was the ‘Speed

Networking’ sessions which proved to be even much moresuccessful and lucrative (from an enduser perspective) than I would

have ever imagined.This ‘Speed Networking’ conference feature is extremely valuable to bothend-users and vendors which are trying to maximize their effectiveness

while at the event, with a limited amount of time. I would STRONGLYrecommend Container World to future container constituents!”

Perhaps the most innovative offering was a "speed networking" session held on both days.Not only a fun way to meet a LOT of people in a short period of time, but a great way to expand businessopportunities with people we might not have otherwise connected with. Informa did an excellent job

with Container World and I look forward to participating in more of their events in the future!

“The speed networking was one of the coolest parts of Container World 2016. It takes a lot ofwork to force yourself to make the rounds with vendors and fellow participants at a

conference and make connections. The speed networking dramatically simplified theprocess. The result for me was more LinkedIn connections, more references, more business

cards, more post-conference demos, and thus a more valuable conference. Great job!”
