Orlando in bloom

摘要

The National Institute for Storage Tank Management (NISTM) seems to have hit on the right timing for its annual show, having struggled for some years under the shadow of the ILTA event in Houston. Moving it earlier in the year - this year's event takes place on March 13 to 15 - has paid off in terms of industry support and attendance, with this year's conference expected to attract a bigger and broader crowd than in previous years. Certainly, the exhibition space is much larger this year, despite being in the same venue, the Rosen Shingle Creek hotel, Orlando, Florida. The 2012 trade show sold out with around 80 exhibitors but this year more room has been made available and around 135 companies will be setting up stands.
