HK STAND FOR UK ELECTRONICS EXHIBITION

****

HONG KONG WILL BE PARTICIPATING AGAIN IN THIS YEAR'S +BRITISH ELECTRONICS WEEK+ EXHIBITION AT THE OLYMPIA, LONDON, FROM APRIL 29 TO MAY 1.

THE EXHIBITION, THE SECOND LARGEST ELECTRONICS SHOW IN EUROPE, WILL HAVE MORE THAN 1 100 STANDS REPRESENTING COMPANIES BOTH IN THE UK AND ABROAD.

THE +BRITISH ELECTRONICS WEEK WILL COMPRISE FOUR MAIN PARTS - NAMELY THE ELECTRONICS/ECIF SHOW, CIRCUIT TECHNOLOGY, ELECTRONIC PRODUCT DESIGN AND FIBRE OPTICS.

HONG KONG IS PARTICIPATING FOR THE SECOND TIME IN THE ALL-ELECTRONICS/ECIF SHOW, THE CORNERSTONE OF THE EXHIBITION, WHICH IS ALREADY IN ITS 11TH YEAR,

+WE ARE GLAD TO BE INVOLVED IN THE EXHIBITION. WE ANTICIPATE THAT THIS WILL LEAD TO AN INCREASE IN INTEREST AMONG OVERSEAS MANUFACTURERS AND IN TURN ENCOURAGE MORE INVESTMENT IN HONG KONG,+ THE PRINCIPAL CONSULTANT (INDUSTRIAL PROMOTION) OF THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT OFFICE IN LONDON, MR DONALD FLETCHER, SAID.

MR FLETCHER POINTED OUT THAT THE ALL-ELECTRONICS/ECIF SHOW IS GENERALLY DEDICATED TO ELECTRONICS COMPONENTS AND ASSEMBLY.

+HOWEVER, OUR STAND WILL BE DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHERS AS OUR MAIN OBJECTIVE IS TO CULTIVATE AND DEVELOP NEW INVESTMENT POTENTIAL RATHER THAN INTRODUCING FINISHED PRODUCTS.

+VISITORS TO OUR STAND WILL BE INTRODUCED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF HONG KONG'S ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY THROUGH A VIDEO PRESENTATION AND THE MANY PAMPHLETS WHICH WILL BE AVAILABLE.+
