And now for something completely different:
(COMTEX) B: HOLOPRINT: Holopack - Holoprint celebrates 10th anniversa B: HOLOPRINT: Holopack - Holoprint celebrates 10th anniversary JUN 7, 1999, M2 Communications - On 17-19 November 1999 the tenth annual holography conference and trade show Holopack -- Holoprint will take place at the Marriott World Centre Hotel in Orlando, US. Holography is now a $1 billion a year industry and is enjoying an annual rate of growth of 30%. This year's Holopack -- Holoprint will focus on this impressive rate of growth and ask the question ? "how much further?" Speakers at the conference will outline how existing packaging and security markets are likely to develop, and inform delegates of potential new markets. New, faster and lower-cost production methods will be examined as will the effect of new materials on packaging, security and other markets. Running alongside the conference is a trade show for suppliers to the holographics industry. Other special events include the Effective Holographic Design Workshop and the Holography News/IHMA Awards of Excellence. Past exhibitors at the trade show include CFC Holographics who said, "At the last Holopack -- Holoprint we picked up a security lead that is now worth $500,000 a year." Mike Florence of James River Products says, "As a major equipment supplier to the holographic industry, the Holopack -- Holoprint conference is a MUST. Unlike the larger machinery shows, every sales enquiry is significant." According to Julie Lee of AHEAD Optoelectronics, the company benefited tremendously and made many new friends in the industry. She says, "It's been great." -0- (C)1994-99 M2 COMMUNICATIONS LTDCONTACT: Moira Erwin, Pira International Tel: +44 (0)1372 802000 e-mail: training-services@pira.co.uk Ian Lancaster, Reconnaissance Tel: +44 (0)1784 497008 e-mail: ianmlancaster@compuserve.com |
