The Small Business Expo is always a good show, offering much more than the chance to stock up on brochures and free pens.
Tech companies are generally heavily represented at the event - in fact they made up nearly a third of the exhibitors last year and close to 90 percent exhibitors have told organisers they'll be back this year.
Reseller News enjoys the chance to see what vendors, system integrators and others in the channel are telling potential small business customers about themselves.
Some of our readers will be exhibiting, but for those who aren't, why not come along as our guest?
Don't worry, we won't escort you around, but the Expo organisers have free tickets to give away to those who register online for one of the three venues (Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch). Auckland runs from 16-18 April, while Christchurch goes from 20-22 May and Wellington from 25-27 June.
The event includes a 'Sustainability Zone', a seminar series, networking opportunities and a cyber café.
