I
know it's only September, and maybe I'm being a little premature, but I'm
truly looking forward to 2025. That's because the year will kick off with
some amazing industry events.
In January we'll have CES (January 7-10) in Las Vegas with more than
150,000 attendees viewing the latest and greatest in Consumer Electronics
and Smart Technologies.
LivingKitchen
®
, the international kitchen show at imm Cologne, Germany
(January 12-16), has established itself as the central meeting point of the
kitchen world. The trade fair duo will invite the driving forces of the kitchen
and furniture industry – including 185 well-known national and international
suppliers from 22 countries who'll present their latest ideas and innovations
from kitchen, furniture, and built-in appliances, to sinks, kitchen taps and
fittings, worktops, lighting, and accessories.
Also coming in January are the Winter Las Vegas Market at World
Market Center Las Vegas (January 26-30), and TISE Live at Mandalay Bay
(January 28-30).
February brings us Design and Construction week at the Las Vegas
Convention Center (Feb 25-27), which could rival CES and Living Kitchen
®
in numbers as the largest annual gathering of residential construction and
design industry professionals. We'll discover new products, hear from
industry experts, and network, meet, and connect with our peers, industry
experts, and many others. A February bonus – ASTI 2025 (Annual Service
Training Institute) will light up Orlando Feb 25-29.
Okay, that was just for starters, taking us through January and February.
