Pro Production 2002 - a new trade show for live event production professionals will take place from January 11-13, 2002 at the San Diego Convention Center, USA. Presented by Timeless Communications Inc, parent company of Pro Lights & Staging News, Pro Production 2002’s tradeshow environment will feature workshops, panel discussions and manufacturer exhibits. Professional production products and services will be centre stage for the three-day event. According to Terry Lowe, president of Timeless Communications, Inc: "The goal is to give live event professionals their own convention. There are many trade shows in the North American market but none of them is solely focused towards the live event production industry. ProProduction 2002 will provide event professionals with their own convention where event technology and issues will be at the forefront."
The conference kicks off on Thursday January 10 with the inaugural Rick O’Brien Memorial Open Golf Tournament, scheduled for Riverwalk Golf Course close to downtown San Diego. Part of the proceeds will go to benefit the children of Rick O’Brien - a long time fixture as a production manager in the industry.
