By organizing conferences all over the world, Intersolar provides companies with new ways of accessing up-and-coming growth markets

Munich, December 18, 2013 – In addition to the existing Intersolar exhibitions and conferences taking place in Europe, the USA, India, China and South America, Intersolar is launching its new global conference program Intersolar Summits. The program will build on Intersolar's portfolio by initially running events in the US states of New Jersey and Arizona as well as in Mexico and Chile in the first half of 2014. The first Intersolar Summit actually took place in Brazil back in 2012 and has since expanded into Intersolar South America, an event with its own exhibition and conference. The organizers intend for them to provide companies working within the solar industry and their partners new ways of accessing the market.

In contrast to the large international Intersolar Conferences, the Intersolar Summits will have around 200 to 300 attendees who wish to find out detailed information about their respective markets and forge new contacts. Up to 15 companies from within the solar industry and their partners will be invited to each summit, where they will be able to engage with the organizers on site. With its new format, Intersolar hopes to be in an even better position than ever before to help the solar industry's globally active companies gain greater access to the market. To this end, Intersolar will cooperate at the various event locations with local organizations and trade associations, such as the USA's Mid Atlantic Solar Energy Association (MSEIA), Bordentown/USA, the New York Solar Energy Society (NYSES), the AriSEIA, Arizona Solar Energy Industries Association, Phoenix/USA, and the GPEC, Greater Phoenix Economic Council, Phoenix/USA. The first Intersolar Summits event takes place in New Jersey, USA, on March 20, 2014, followed by Arizona, USA, on April 8, 2014, Mexico on May 15, 2014 and Chile on June 19, 2014.
