Thank you for reviewing information on exhibiting your products and services at
TechFest: The Long Island Technology Festival.

TechFest is both a technology showcase and a lifestyle celebration. For participating businesses, this is a great opportunity to network with your target customers, and to expose and promote your business beyond its current range, to consultants, influential consumers, the media, and the future work force. This event is designed to popularize what you do, and to educate and inform thousands of people as to how well you do it.

This event occurs in a fun, interactive environment. Therefore, when you exhibit at TechFest you will find an audience that is receptive, and motivated to learn.

We believe this is a concept worthy of your support and participation. It is made possible by Nassau County and the LIA, but it is not directly subsidized with County or LIA funds. Every exhibit improves the show. If the show succeeds and becomes an annual event, it can define Long Island the way the Mardi Gras defines New Orleans .

As we began producing TechFest, we quickly noticed that there is a substantial number of Long Island companies, many of them B2B, actively contributing  to significant advances across an array of sciences, every day.  We also couldn't help notice that the technological prowess of the Long Island student population is nothing short of remarkable. On the surface, these are two important and impressive facts, but they should be much more than facts. They need to become assets, and when they truly become recognized assets, then they will become economic advantages.  That process all starts with popularization, and this is the primary mission of TechFest.

The cost of exhibiting is modest, and added value can be negotiated. Call us with ideas. Tell us more about what you do, how your expertise is applied, and let us contribute ideas back to you, and maximize the impact of your exhibit. We offer speaking opportunities, participation in panel discussions, the opportunity to distribute literature through our event goodie bags, and many other enhancements. In order to find out more, just speak with us.

See you at TechFest!
