ATLANTA – York Schwab is stepping away from his role as show director of Medtrade this year. Schwab, who began working with Medtrade in 2017 and became show director in 2021, will remain with Emerald, the show’s parent company, but will be working on different events. “I’m proud of the work we achieved as a team at Medtrade over the years,” Schwab said. “With the pandemic, and before, to now – Medtrade is in a stronger position. We were able to deliver on a consistent industry request that we schedule one show per year, instead of two. Emerald leadership had the open-mindedness to engage in these conversations, ultimately arriving at the decision to move from Atlanta to Dallas, and agreeing that one annual show would be best for the HME industry. It’s a long-term vision. and I’m glad to see it thriving.” Emerald named Kerry Tyler as associate show director of Medtrade in May of 2023. This year’s Medtrade is scheduled for March 26-28 at the Kay Bailey Hutchinson Convention Center in Dallas. Register here.
