Brett Alexander Lipeles begins tenure at K2 Corp bicycle
division, is assigned trade show marketing responsibilities |
| 1990-1998 |
This division grew 3000% in 6.5 years and large exhibit
grew from 20’ x 30’ to 50’ x 100’,
meanwhile, rather than outsourcing trade show exhibit management,
Brett continues to run every detail of the program including
supervision of installation and dismantle of the K2 trade
show exhibit display booth in the field |
| 1998 |
K2 Bike division moves to WA – for family related
reasons, Mr. Lipeles chooses not to move and instead becomes
a partner at Exhibit A, a full-service trade show exhibit
and display company in Providence RI |
| 1998-2002 |
Exhibit A grows 500%, but a slowing economy is greatly effected
for the worse by the 9/11 – World Trade Center tragedy
in New York City, September 2001 – after this event,
trade show expenditure is reduced, exhibit booth and display
sales are limited and trade shows shrink |
| July 2002 |
Brett Lipeles modifies his relationship with Exhibit A,
and founds a new business, Exhibit and Display Consultants,
to service his existing client base. Exhibit A goes out of
business in October 2005. |
