8,000 Visitors Expected for 3G World Congress and Exhibition 2005
1 November , 2005

ASIA : With mobile communications set for sustained growth worldwide, the 3G World Congress and Exhibition 2005 expects to bring more than 8,000 visitors to Hong Kong on 16-18 November 2005, up 50% compared with last year. Together with an increase of more than 50% exhibition space and more than 150 exhibitors and 160 speakers from the global telecommunications industry, the 3G World Congress and Exhibition 2005 is favourably positioned as the best platform for the wireless industry to convene and network.

As a conference and exhibition devoted to next-generation wireless and mobile technologies, the 3G World Congress and Exhibition 2005 will see a prestigious line-up of global telecommunications players, including, Accenture, Agere Systems, Alcatel, Huawei Technologies, Lucent Technologies, Motorola, Nortel, Qualcomm, Siemens, ZTE and many others. Additionally, local telecom operators including CSL, 3 Hong Kong and Sunday will also participate in the Congress alongside with overseas operators, including KDDI, KTF, NTT DoCoMo and Vodafone, to discuss 3G and wireless broadband deployment around the world.

"We are seeing 3G and wireless broadband technologies evolving tremendously. There will be no dominant network standard in the future and users will be able to dynamically select the most appropriate technology from the range of options available. That is why the 3G World Congress and Exhibition uniquely includes all the 3G and emerging wireless broadband technologies. We are delighted to present a series of expert speakers and panel discussions to explore different business and technology issues in the telecommunications industry," said Daniel Kirwin, Managing Director of the 3G World Congress and Exhibition.

The 3G World Congress and Exhibition will include all 3G and emerging wireless broadband technologies including CDMA2000, TD-SCDMA, WCDMA, WiMAX, WiBro, DMB/DVB-H and HSDPA. Another highlight of the event is the "WiMAX Village", which provides a centralized venue for WiMAX developers to demonstrate its benefits to telecom operators. We are also pleased to bring together global players from the mobile entertainment industry in a special forum session that focuses on "Profiting from Mobile Content, Gaming and Entertainment Business Over 3G".

Daniel Kirwin concluded, "The center of gravity of the telecom industry has shifted to Asia. While the worldwide mobile communications market is set for sustained growth with forecasts of US$ 2 billion by year-end 2006, Asia is leading the way with over half of the growth expected from emerging markets like China and India. Anchored in Hong Kong which is well-placed at the geographical and economic center of Asia, the 3G World Congress & Exhibition has become the focal point of the global telecommunications industry in November."
