KnowledgeFest Dallas Rescheduled to December 10-12

NORTH ANDOVER, MA (08.20.2021) – Despite a strong number of early registrations, the Mobile Electronics Association (MEA) announced today that it is rescheduling its largest KnowledgeFest event in Dallas from August 27–29 to later in the year on December 10–12. The reason for rescheduling is due to the spike in new COVID-19 cases in the Dallas County area along with several manufacturer cancellations, mostly due to global travel bans.

“Although the protocols where in place to assure a safe event, we respect the decision that many manufacturers regretfully made to not attend”, said Chris Cook, MEA President. MEA recently surveyed registered attendees and found that three (3) out of four (4) retailers still planned on attending the event in Dallas, and the top three reasons for attending were Education Workshops, Manufacturer Training, and the Exhibit Show Floor. “What is most important is to have a successful event for all that attend” stated Cook.

The industry is looking forward to the next KnowledgeFest event in Indianapolis on October 8–10 where attendance has grown over the last five events.

Registration is open at KnowledgeFest.com for the next three events. Attendees will not have to register again for Dallas in December and will be contacted for confirmation before the event.
