Together, we will build the IMTS brand and continue to make the show a resounding success for both exhibitors and visitors," says John Krisko, IMTS Director - Exhibitions."

Crowley Webb CEO Jim Hettich says, "We are excited and enthused to be part of IMTS and focus our energy on promoting what is one of the world's most important events in connecting global technology producers and consumers. We are eager to begin the IMTS 2014 planning process."
