In a lecture, Microsoft will present the influence its technical innovations have had on the imaging market.
GfK will introduce figures from the global imaging market for 2011 in collaboration with market research company NPD. In a separate lecture, the extraordinary situation in Africa and the Middle East will be explored by a GfK specialist from the region, with a specific focus on market entry opportunities for industry and retailers. The former European Management Board member of Minolta will provide an analysis of the Japanese communications industry's future prospects.
