The 14th annual show was held in Philadelphia on November 9 and 10.
The 14th annual NeoCon East took place on November 9 and 10 for the second year in a row at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia, attracting — despite the rain, and generalized post-election night bleariness — over 7,000 attendees to the show.
“NeoCon East delivered on many fronts but most importantly it connected the key players in our industry interested in expanding their knowledge and business opportunities,” said Julie Kohl, NeoCon’s VP of exhibitor sales, in a press release. “With thousands of new products on display from nearly 200 exhibitors it is in these connections that business happens and market share is won.”
A few newcomers made a splash: Spacestor, a cutting-edge workplace furniture company based in the UK, and the desking experts, InMovement. Spacestor showed off its Railway Carriage, a solution created to provide refuge in an open work environment. InMovement — hardly alone in this endeavor — made its debut with Servo, a new seating solution that converts to a standing height work surface as needed.
Longer in the tooth: Keilhauer, which celebrated its 35th anniversary this year with an eye-catching booth (see above) and their biggest showing ever, debuting nine new products.
We handed the keys to our Twitter account over to founder Bob Fox for the day, who had this to say about Cubii — the first under-desk elliptical — from Fitness Cubed:
This looks like too much fun! Can’t wait to burn off a few pounds. #wellness #workplace #NeoConEast2016 @mycubii pic.twitter.com/jiUjLNxvaZ
