What They’re Saying About NXTcomm08 and the Industry
What do you see as the top challenges for our industry?
“Without a doubt, the top challenge is to resolve the Net Neutrality debate so that we can move forward as an industry. This means it needs to be done without hysteria and using an approach that honestly addresses the needs of all parties involved.”

Exhibitor Housing
NXTcomm knows that your housing experience impacts your view of the show and we are continually working to successfully accommodate your housing needs. NXTcomm is partnering with Ambassadors as our official housing bureau. In conjunction with Ambassadors and the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Bureau, NXTcomm held a series of meetings with the Las Vegas hotel community with three objective:
- To ensure that our exhibitors and attendees are being offered the lowest rate available
- To increase room inventory throughout the city to make more hotel rooms available for both our exhibitor and attendee constituents; and
- To maximize our room blocks’ performance.
We have maximized our hotel room commitments from hotels in the Las Vegas area. All official hotels will be included in the NXTcomm transportation system.
