I have had the pleasure of working with Rich Santana a few times over the years dating back to 1998. Rich, like anyone that is successful is very knowledgeable and works very hard to deliver for his customers. In my opinion, the trait that separates Rich from his competitors is his passion. Everyone likes to say they have passion for what they do but few are as passionate about their craft 18 years into it. Rich is just as enthusiastic about learning about his clients challenges and trying to show them solutions as he was when I met him in 1998. His desire to make his clients look good to their customers and superiors is remarkable. In the trade show industry we work with many vendors that provide numerous services. In my 18 years in this industry Rich is the only vendor that has actually connected me with companies that produced business for my company. Rich is a true partner and I have benefited from our working relationship over the years. Brian K. Tarrant MC2 SW Division Vice President
