Charged Up will continue to bring awareness to the emerging e-bike market, building off the success of Interbike’s Electric Bike Media Event in 2013. Outdoor Retailer will invite brands and products that define the growing trend toward incorporating technology into outdoor adventures. Today’s outdoor and e-bike technology provides easier access, comfort and safety to more Americans than ever before. This event will feature portable technology brands and products, providing a unique opportunity to amplify their stories to the attending consumer media.
Interbike and Outdoor Retailer plan to limit the opportunity to 25 brands from these categories to participate in this exclusive media opportunity. Sponsors will have the opportunity to invite key retailers to join the event on the afternoon of the final day providing additional value to this important event.
The event is supported by PeopleForBikes, the Outdoor Industry Association and Bicycle Retailer & Industry News. These organizations will be presenting historical and trend data as it relates to the ebike and outdoor technology categories.
Charged Up will take place May 14-15, 2014 at the Crystal Springs Resort in Hamburg, NJ. The setting is perfectly suited for intimate product discussions and to take the technology outdoors and on the trail, and is strategically positioned near New York’s national media outlets. Invited journalists will have an opportunity to truly understand the advancements and functionality of ebikes, portable power, safety, and fitness gear along with innovations in wearable technology.
“Applied technology coming out of both the bicycle and outdoor industries at Interbike and Outdoor Retailer is incredible,” said Kenji Haroutunian, VP/Show Director, Outdoor Retailer. “These products enhance the outdoor experience, making it more fun, safe and social. By gathering trend leading brands in one experience the event will make it easy for journalists to understand and experience and experience the fun products coming out of our industry, with the ultimate goal of having them translate that experience to their individual media audience.”
