Las Vegas Trade Show Exhibiting Made Easier

Nov 22, 2009 @ 03:08 pm by articles
Las Vegas has grown in the last few years, some of the landmark hotels have been imploded, while being replaced by mega hotels and convention centers.
According to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, in 2002 more than 5 million convention and trade show delegates traveled to Las Vegas, generating $5.9 billion in non-gaming revenue. Las Vegas hosts a large percentage of the top conventions and rents more convention space than any other U.S. city. The climate is not usually a factor unlike others cities which have to contend with excessive rain, snow, etc. The city has grown to accommodate the needs of exhibit and convention attendees.
 
Las Vegas has grown since then, we have seen world famous hotels imploded, like the Dunes, Sands and the Stardust hotels; while being replaced by mega hotels such as the Wynn Hotel Resort, the Venetian, Luxor and the Mandalay Bay, etc. We now have more places to hold conventions. We have seen the Las Vegas Convention Center expand into a mega convention center, while the Sand Convention Center and the Mandalay Bay are not far behind. These convention halls have host such conventions and trade shows like CES, INTEROP, THE GAMING SHOW, SEMA, AAPEX TRADE SHOWS and thousands more.
 
One exhibit house that has catered to quite a few of these shows is ELDS, Inc, providing the convention exhibitors with custom built exhibit booths either for rental or purchase. ELDS is a full one shop exhibit house that will not only design and manufacture your next trade show display, but will also transport and set up your booth in any location in Las Vegas. See the options available for exhibiting in my previous article “trade show displays; rental vs. purchasing or leasing”. Las Vegas has done a great job of providing a great backdrop for convention goers. Let’s not forget about the gaming industry, restaurants and hotels that cater to such shows and venues.
 
The city had to expand to accommodate all the conventions that are coming to each of these hotels and convention halls.With the growth of more conventions and mega hotels; a new monorail system was developed. This system runs along the Las Vegas strip to most of the major hotels and convention halls. It’s a quick and easy way to avoid traffic congestion. This system can reach speeds of up to 50 mph, with seven stops. It reaches one end of the Las Vegas strip in 15 minutes or less; it’s cost-efficient and hassle-free. This cuts down on the large amount of parking that is needed. The convention attendees and weekend vacationers can now feel assured that they can escape the traffic jams that other cities experience.
 
The nightlife, well, what can I say, it’s something that you have to experience “what happens in Las Vegas stays in Las Vegas”. Let your hair down and enjoy yourself.
Currently, Las Vegas has 9 million square feet of convention and meeting space, including the Las Vegas Convention Center’s recent South Hall expansion. Additional available convention space significantly increased in 2003 thanks to the opening of Mandalay Bay’s 1.5 million-square-foot conference center. The city is still growing as more and more hotels are being built, with conventions facilities attached. With over 127,000 guest rooms in hotels and in close proximity to McCarran International Airport, the Las Vegas Convention Center is among the largest convention centers in America.

GPS Asset and Container Locating

Nov 22, 2009 @ 02:28 pm by articles

The advent of the Global Positioning System (GPS) and the extension of it services to the general population has revolutionized the management of the mobile assets of private enterprises. Such mobile assets could include cars, vans, trucks, buses, tractors, heavy equipment, and even cargo containers. Before GPS, administrators of such assets had really no way of overseeing them once they depart from the parking lot apart from relying on the reports of the drivers and perhaps a few field checkers, which are only submitted after the fact so that it was not possible to take helpful steps to forestall further damage, loss, or delay in the shipment.

With GPS and the addition of a few electronic devices installed on the mobile assets, as well as a few computers, fleet managers can view a few monitors deliver real-time data about their moving vehicles. Such data can even be designed to be sent to administrators regardless of their whereabouts through their laptops or cell phones.

This GPS trailer tracking system has broad and effective capabilities. Our GPS tracking device continuously sends data about the vehicles or containers using GPS satellite signals. This updates the managers of the precise location of their vehicles at any given time, thus they are assured that their operators are following the prearranged route of their journey. It also allows managers to monitor the speed at which the vehicles are running. With this data, managers can compute the precise time their vehicles will reach their destination, allowing the recipients to prepare for the vehicle’s arrival. Also, as faster speed uses more petrol, managers might want to impose a speed limit on their vehicles which they can easily monitor. Check out this container tracking page to find out more.

The more complex systems also have the capability to restrict the starter system of the vehicle using GPS technology. This means that even if you are in the United States and your heavy equipment is in the Middle East, you can disable the vehicle.
