Comdex Canada, originally scheduled for September 16-18, 2003 has been delayed until March 24-26, 2004. This was to be the first Comdex since Key3Media, the former host of the annual event, went bankrupt and transfered the responsibility of running Comdex to MediaLive International.
On the contrary. In this current economic climate, events like Comdex allow IT professionals from across Canada to get together and discuss solutions for the future. Intelligent discussion with a new focus on viability, prudence, and value shouldn’t be put off, they should happen more often in tough times.
MediaLive International had an opportunity to help the IT industries lead themselves towards fiscally responsible solutions that will benefit their attendees and exhibitors, the IT industry they support, and the Canadian economy as a whole.
Oh well.
