Vantaggi
As the founder of the company, I was always running a hundred miles an hour, constantly traveling and expanding our shows around the USA. I was very proud that we assisted hundreds of thousands of tech & cyber professionals find new jobs (especially the veterans!) Most importantly I was blessed to have a great team that helped me grow the business to be the number one job fair for the defense industry for over 20 years and with that we also had wonderful memories along the way.
Svantaggi
The only con is that this company is no longer producing events. After being sold into the CyberRisk Alliance in late 2022, this division got smaller and less attention. The focus was on the Cyber Security Summits which indeed made more sense, The TECHEXPO events were live job fairs and with the growing trend of professionals finding their job online, these job fairs got smaller over time in both companies participating and job fair attendees overall. Thus, in the end it did make perfect sense to close down this division. We did help hundreds of thousands of professionals gain new employment, and I am grateful that my team and I were able to help so many people for over 20 years.
