Intersolar & Energy Storage North America (IESNA), the leading event for solar and storage industries, has announced it has acquired the Midwest Solar Expo (MWSE). This move strengthens IESNA’s dedication to offering valuable connections, resources, and expertise to support the energy transition at both national and regional levels. Jake Rozmaryn, the former Executive Director of Midwest Solar Expo, will take on an advisory role, while Sharona Kohn will remain as the Conference Director.
Wes Doane, Vice President, Intersolar & Energy Storage North America, said in a statement, “Midwest Solar Expo was founded to illuminate the future of the renewable energy market in the Midwest and now becomes our second regional expansion following Intersolar & Energy Storage North America Texas, which is set to launch November 19-20, 2024 in Austin. MWSE’s platform has focused on the intersection of policy, finance, technology, and business model innovation in the Midwest, and its growing exhibition targets the region’s specific challenges, offering professionals the tools they need to successfully navigate this ever-changing market.”
This acquisition is a continuation of Diversified Communications’ previous investments in the renewable energy sector. Based in Portland, Maine, the company, which produces IESNA, first expanded its involvement in the industry by acquiring Intersolar North America in 2019. Since then, it has built a strong portfolio in clean energy, which now includes events like Energy Storage North America, the Smart Energy Decisions network, Net Zero Forum, Renewable Energy Forum, Intersolar & Energy Storage North America Texas, and most recently, the Midwest Solar Expo.
Jake Rozmaryn, Executive Director & Cofounder, Midwest Solar Expo, also mentioned, “Intersolar & Energy Storage North America’s reach, reputation, and impact within the solar + storage industry is unparalleled. With its customer-focused approach, expansive global network, and deep bench of resources, I’m confident Midwest Solar Expo will flourish and expand under IESNA’s direction providing even greater value to Midwest Solar Expo’s attendees, exhibitors, sponsors, and partners in the years to come.” |
