A Somber IBC
By Carolyn Giardina, Scott Lehane and George Jarrett.
In the wake of the Sept. 11 tragedy, IBC 2001 had a very somber opening. Three minutes of silence were observed across the show floor (and across Europe) at noon Friday, Sept. 13 to honor the victims of the tragedy, and the show floor opened at 12:03 p.m. With American and Canadian airspace closed to civilian aircraft for the opening of the show, by the time commercial flights resumed, on a reduced schedule, many Americans were unable to travel, or had cancelled their trips.
