A company has specific reasons for trade shows, and the primary one is to attract new clients. I have worked booths with Uniglobe-Kisco and they typically have 3-4 knowledgeable staff on hand at all times. They can answer QMC questions, and if they cannot, QMC is a phonecall or text away. U-K is a truly worldwide company on multiple continents with scores of existing clients. I am sure in the few years they have represented QMC they have introduced QMC to a number of their clients. They then serve as intermediaries smoothing the language and customs differences and assisting QMC in moving a sale along.
So ordinarily you will not see an announcement from U-K at a trade show because more likely they beginning of a feeling out period rather than the conclusion of the sale.
On the other hand, we know that QMC attended Display Week. Their purpose is to meet with potential and existing clients to discuss next steps and agreements, which still must be structured by attorneys for proper legality, especially if it is with overseas partners. That takes time.
It was not logical to expect QMC to have a QD display shown at Display Week in the absence of an announced agreement. That is the cart before the horse. I read about display 'fabs' costing hundreds of millions of dollars or more to go to the 'next generation'. It is not logical to assume that a major display manufacturer would commit that kind of money to a revolutionary advancement (QD-LED using Blue QD) without evaluating and scoping the entire plan with projections for many years.
QMC did announce the biggest news of the week - Blue NHM Quantum Dots,
which enable the next generation of displays, micro-led, and smartphone displays. You got the word before the world understands the meaning and potential for this advancement. You don't have to wait for some mail come-on from a stock guru telling you he has the secret to fortunes if you will kindly subscribe to his service at $XX per month. You don't have to wonder if he is talking about QMC. You don't need him to tell you that it will affect dozens of industries and be in the Billions of dollars. It was in this week's PR.
