You can read more about this exciting evolution in this press release, which outlines Bulletin’s vision and plans for the NY NOW® show in 2023. At a high level, we see a massive opportunity to combine the efficiencies of our leading digital platform with the pure magic of an iconic in-person event.
During the pandemic, our industry lost a lot of its humanity despite the explosion of wholesale e-commerce and became very transaction-driven and impersonal. Because of this, it’s grown harder for brands and buyers to broker real, enduring relationships. We’re excited to rethink and revamp NY NOW®’s format and programming positioning it into an in-person show that puts those relationships front-and-center, underpinned by transactions and commerce at the event and year-round. It’s exactly what our customers have been asking for.
If you have questions or insight and feedback on what you would like to see and experience at the 2023 show, please email ali@bulletin.co.
