The Custom Electronic Design & Installation Assn. will move in 2011 and 2012 its annual tradeshow, CEDIA Expo, back to Indianapolis, where it was held 1999-2001 and 2003-2005. CEDIA Expo will take place September 22-26 in Atlanta, then will be held September 7-11, 2011, and September 5-9, 2012, in Indianapolis. "With the expansion of the Indiana Convention Center and new hotels, Indianapolis is once again able to provide CEDIA Expo with a platform to grow,” said Ken Erdmann, CEDIA chairman.
