CeBIT set to draw the crowds

More than 600 exhibitors divided into 25 sections are expected to show their wares at CeBIT Australia 2012 when it opens its doors for three days from 22-24 May at Darling Harbour, Sydney.

Wireless networks, unified communications, geospatial plus research and development will all be features ranging from start-up companies to multinationals.

The number of exhibitors is expected to attract more than 30,000 professionals from Australia, Asia-Pacific and the rest of the world who will visit the stands and network among themselves. Special events will make networking easier when business leaders, strategic researchers, operational managers and ICT professionals meet to share ideas and get to know each other.

The concurrent conference will hear presentations from more than 100 global thought leaders and will allow governments, companies and individuals to hear and share the latest thinking. With more conference sessions and workshops this year, attendees will have an even greater opportunity to get up to date with leading-edge technology.

Produced in partnership with the CSIRO, NICTA and DSTO, AusInnovate connects research, industry and government communities to discuss what is needed to foster innovation and optimise productivity.

The eGovernment forum will look at the ways technology is changing how governments deliver services. The health conference will bring together policy makers and end users to exchange information and examine case studies in the health sector.

The event will also feature conferences covering cloud computing, social media and online retailing and mobility.
