 …I am here to gather some information about the companies that are exhibiting, look at their products and review partnership opportunities to meet our clients’ needs. I am sourcing for ICT infrastructure, software, video software, mobile and wireless technologies. It is a great show! There is a wide range of products here and I’ve made a lot of business leads. I think this year’s show is better than last year’s. More of the big players are here and the range of exhibitors is broader. I’m looking at the new entrants and I find their products very interesting, as they’ve more edge and are more competitively priced. |

| The show is very informative and the range of products is good. We’re able to see different technologies from all over the world relevant to my work. I am sourcing for communication technology for example, satellite communications, IT software and hardware. We exchanged contacts with quite a number of companies and may contact them for future projects. |
