TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS

Horizon 2005 will feature an even wider array of telecommunications, information, and communications technology solutions geared to businesses and personal users across various age groups, a statement from CWJ said.

The exposition will also provide opportunities for registered participants to benefit from free workshops to be hosted by representatives of leading international technology developers who will be among exhibitors at the event.

Errol Miller, CWJ's vice president for Corporate Communi-cations said: "One of the advantages the new venue gives us is that we will be better able to accommodate more of the various interests that have been requested by exhibitors and visitors to previous events."  Some 10,000 visitors are expected to attend the event.
