AUSTIN, Texas, March 12 /PRNewswire/ --

Excite! the event for experiential, exhibition and live marketing has announced a strategic partnership with MeetingTechOnline (MTO), the premier educational event for technology buyers and sellers in the meetings industry. MTO Summit, which tours US cities including Washington, Chicago and San Francisco, will co-locate with Excite! this June in Earls Court, London.

Excite!, formerly Exhibiting Show, attracts an audience of over 3,000 event marketers, organizers and agencies and with its regular line-up of innovative exhibitors and solutions providers and massively popular seminar program.

MTO Summit 2009 connects the users of exhibition and event technology with the brightest minds, hottest ideas, and most valuable tools. MTO Summit is for event professionals who have experiences to share and a passion for exploring the hot new thing, learning lessons from failures, innovations and inspirations, and the practical applications of all of the above.

The combination of the two events means that visitors to the show in June will also have access to a powerful line-up of internationally renowned event technology experts and exhibitors in a conference dedicated to technology in events, while MTO Summit conference delegates and sponsors will be able to access the additional networking and business opportunities on the Excite! show floor.

Excite! Event Director, John Sanders, said, This is great news for exhibition organizers who want to stay at the cutting edge of technology in the event space - a dedicated conference program alongside an event they already know and attend.

Stephen Nold, President of MeetingTechOnline commented, Our success in the US has attracted interest from around the world so taking our event to London and co-locating with Excite! is a wonderful opportunity to reach out to a new audience and share best practice, experience and ideas. And of course we fully intend to bring our US delegates to London to reach out to, connect with and learn from their UK counterparts.

Excite! and MTO take place June 24-25th Earls Court, London.
