"Expositions are the timekeepers of progress" - Charles Pappas,speaker@IFES WorldSummit

“They record the world’s advancement. They stimulate the energy, enterprise, and intellect of the people; and quicken human genius. ..."

Charles Pappas has covered the expo industry for Exhibitor magazine since 2002 and is its de facto historian. Previously, he was the investigative reporter for Yahoo Internet Life, and a technology writer for many other publications. In the last few years his articles have won numerous national and regional awards. His books include “Flying Cars, Zombie Dogs, and Robot Overlords,” a probe of how world expos and trade fairs shaped history, and “It’s a Bitter Little World,” a revel in the tawdry language of film noir.

We asked Pappas, what he wants the audience to take home of his presentation: "I want them to realize how much exhibitions have changed the world, and how they make history every day - but rarely know it because the industry is invisible to many.  They all have the ability to bring thousands, even millions, of people together, in a way that can transform the world!"
