"This year's IBS and IECSC New York very much mirror the current state of the professional beauty industry -- resilient, innovative, optimistic about the future --
and most importantly, growing, remarked Dana Lupton, vice president, beauty and spa groups at Questex Media Group LLC. "Attendance was up and both of our exhibit floors sold out. Education, from classrooms and workshops to our International Main Stage was clearly a big hit with attendees this year. The show floor aisles were packed during peak hours and attendee buying was up according to leading brands on the floor. We are thrilled with the results and overwhelming positive reaction."
