Extending your Reach Through Social Media at SEMICON West 2012
At SEMICON West 2011 we saw a great increase in exhibitors using Social Media to promote their brand, product and booth, especially on Twitter. For 2012 we are bringing new tools and tips for exhibitors to effectively increase their reach on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn for little to no additional cost. Look to this update for regular tips and additional visibility that we have planned.

To prepare and maximize for the upcoming benefits you will want to make sure that your organization has a Twitter Account and a Facebook Page. In addition you can expect resources for your staff to reach out to potential attendees and customers via their LinkedIn pages. We look forward to helping you have a dynamic and prosperous SEMICON West 2012.
