ORLANDO, Fla. (Dec. 1, 2008) - The enthusiasm can be felt around PIC Group, Inc. as they prepare for POWER-GEN International 2008, being hosted at the Orange County Convention Center beginning Tuesday, Dec. 2.

A major milestone for PennWell®, this year marks POWER-GEN’s 20th Anniversary, and PIC is proud to have participated at the trade show for all 20 years. This year, PIC will be one of more than 1,200 businesses on the world’s largest industry exhibit floor to showcase its service expertise in the power industry.

“We are thrilled to be back at POWER-GEN. Every year, this event provides us with the opportunity to reach out to a gathering of worldwide customers,” explained Matt Runyon, chief operating officer of PIC Group, Inc. “With a team in attendance of nearly 30 and a new booth design, PIC is going to be well-represented and we’re excited to be a part of this year’s show.”

Businesses and registrants from around the world will gather to teach, learn and discuss the latest industry trends. The show expects to draw more than 17 thousand attendees from 76 countries representing many diverse elements associated with power generation.

“We have a lot to show our customers,” said Runyon. “Over the past few months, we’ve worked really hard to put greater emphasis on our key service lines. PIC still offers all of its same services, but now in a way that is more specific to exactly what customers need.”
