Larger Trade Brooklyn B2B Show at New York Marriott at Brooklyn Bridge Empowers Biz Leaders & Professionals

BROOKLYN, NY; APRIL 9, 2014 - Cardinal Trade Group, Inc. (CTG), the producer of the New York region’s top business events, recently held its spring Trade Brooklyn business-to-business trade show at a new and larger venue, the New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge, bringing a bigger exhibition and drawing an estimated 2,500 attendees.  Once again proving to be a catalyst for more business activity in Brooklyn, the entrepreneurial spirit and energy level of attendees was evident.  At the pre-show networking breakfast, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams welcomed an enthusiastic group of businesspeople who were anxious to take advantage of the show’s exhibits and seminars as well as opportunities to interact with one another.   

Attendees from all the boroughs connected with prospects, vendors and referral sources representing a cross-section of business sectors.  Leading small, medium and large businesses participated in showcasing their new products, services and cost saving solutions to support expansion and new business development.  The spring show’s new education programs, such as the Brooklyn Business Summit and Social Media Boot Camp, drew in record breaking numbers and received favorable feedback from attendees.

“I have participated in Trade Brooklyn for several years and the passion and intensity of Brooklyn businesses has never been greater. The new educational seminars were refreshing and worthwhile additions. I was able to walk away from the show with a better understanding of current business trends and marketing concepts and I got some promising business leads,” said Bobby Giurintano, Senior Account Executive at TGI.
