Diane Raihle, President diane.raihle@specializedexpos.com Diane's experience in the career fair and trade show industries began with Westech ExpoCorp in the early 1980s in San Jose, California. Westech produced the most successful and largest career events in the world. As director of operations, she was instrumental in the success of the company in producing career events in markets throughout the country. Later, as vice president of operations at 1-Jobs.com in Independence, Ohio, Diane successfully increased profits and launched several new markets. Following the acquisition of 1-Jobs.com by BrassRing, she successfully integrated the two organizations and drastically lowered operational expenses in their events division. Diane also co-founded NTE Expos, which is a major decorating company for trade shows in the western United States. As the founder of Specialized Expos, Diane recognizes the need for a reasonably priced alternative in the trade show and career events fields and can offer this by keeping overhead expenses down and reinvesting revenue into the events in order to guarantee success for participating organizations. ![]() Paula Raihle, Graphics and Sales
