I&#8217;ll preface this by <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">tipping my hat to Rich Tehrani and his 24-7 team<\/span> for putting on another successful ITExpo. More importantly &#8211; and as noted more extensively in a previous post &#8211; TMC continues to be open to new ideas for making the Expo a richer experience as well as reaching new audiences. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m very appreciative of the support they&#8217;ve shown for our Smart Grid Summit, and no doubt my cohorts feel the same for the other co-located events run under their tent, namely 4GWE, M2M, the Cloud Summit and Startup Camp. From what I can tell, all were successful, and I&#8217;m sure all of these will be back bigger and better this October for the LA ITExpo. With that said, here are a few photos to give you a flavor for what I mean.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the sleeper event of the week &#8211; Larry Lisser&#8217;s Telecom Startup Bootcamp. A bit like American Idol &#8211; here are the judges who gave their feedback after each startup pitch. The room was packed, which says a lot considering the event took place Thursday night after a full day of ITExpo activity.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Influential analyst Jon Arnold spent some time documenting the ITEXPO event of last week.
