EIBTM 2008 Calls Tech Providers to Enter the Worldwide Technology Watch Competition

The Worldwide Technology Watch (WWTW) competition forms part of EIBTM’s increasing focus on new technology solutions for the meetings industry and will once again be taking place this year.

The competition is dedicated to discovering the latest technological innovations that will have a positive impact on meetings, events, incentive travel, conferences and exhibitions.

The closing date for entries is Friday 5th September 2008 and the winner receives a free stand at the MPI Technology Village @ EIBTM 2008 and the opportunity to present their product during EIBTM 2008 in Barcelona.

The 2007 WWTW competition attracted a record number of entries from over 40 different international companies. The 2007 Worldwide Technology Watch (WWTW) winner was Shockfish SA with the new SPOTME. The judging committee felt that this product scored highly in all three judging criteria: innovation, completeness of concept, and value to users at events.

Winners of previous years’ competitions have found positive publicity and commercial backing through presenting their products to the industry at EIBTM. The WWTW competition is the right platform from which to gain extra credibility within the industry.
