AVN’s 2013 Adult Entertainment Expo Begins

Wednesday, January 16th, 2013

These photos are from Wednesday, day one of AVN’s 15th Annual Adult Entertainment Expo (AEE); held at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, NV. Day one is a B2B event with members of the adult industry from the Internet, video and hard goods being the primary attendees. It was a good time for the media to come in and interview porn stars such as Jesse Jayne and Jessica Drake before the doors open for the fan show which begins Thursday.

AVN’s Adult Novelty Expo (ANE) also started today and included seminars and booths of various toys, oils, pills and other pleasure devices as well as various services such as credit card processing and insurance available for those that own toy stores. ANE will continue through Friday; with AEE culminating Saturday evening with the 30th Annual AVN Awards.

2013 Internext Expo comes to an end

Wednesday, January 16th, 2013

These photos are from the final evening at the 2013 Internext Expo which includes the CEO Dinner sponsored by CommerceGate and AWE; and the Farewell Party held by AWE. It was an appropriate ending for a successful and productive show. Theo, Panos and the entire AVN staff should be congratulated for a job well done.

Personally, I would like to thank all the sponsors and attendees that came out and made it the success it was; especially MojoHost. Now, it is time to move on to AVN’s Adult Entertainment Expo (AEE) and the AVN Awards. (more…)

Photos from day 3 of Internext Expo 2013

Tuesday, January 15th, 2013

These photos are from day three of the adult Internet industry’s largest B2B event, Internext Expo 2013. Day three was the last day of Internext and it consisted of Speed Networking, seminars, panels and workshops; covering topics such as Content Production Basics, Trends in Hosting and CDN, After the Election: A State of the Industry Discussion as well as billing and dating. The daytime events ended with a “Codependent Cocktail Party” which was essentially a cocktail party for those still at Internext and those arriving early for the Adult Entertainment Expo (AEE).

I talked to several people today and asked their opinion of the show overall; the consensus was the same from everyone I spoke to, lots of business was done. While a few years ago there were questions about whether or not Internext could survive. Well, Panos and Theo have done a great job of bringing Internext back to life. There were several hundred more people here this year compared to last, with many new faces as well as many people that have not been around in a while joining in.
