BRIEF HISTORY

Born from the convention floors of Chicago, founder Donald Svehla recognized the industry’s need for a dedicated news source in 1993. With the support of industry friends, Svehla translated his tradeshow experience into the inaugural Exhibit City News, launched in June 1994 as a modest eight-page newsletter for Chicago’s tradeshow community. Over the past 30 years, ECN has transformed into an indispensable resource for industry news and information, celebrating the dynamic evolution of the tradeshow and event landscape.
