Worldwide Watch is an exciting EIBTM initiative to identify the most innovative technology development or product breakthrough that will have the most significance within the meetings, incentive and business travel industry.
The winner of the Worldwide Watch is invited to make a high profile presentation on the centre stage at EIBTM providing exposure to over 8000 top trade industry professionals. An entry could be a product or service just launched or it could be a concept in the early stages of development. WorldWide Watch can provide your company with early exposure, allowing you to develop the product further and perhaps even sell it into the meetings and events market.
The winner of the 2002 Worldwide Watch was 'Throughlines' a powerful technology breakthrough, which enables an audience to view a video presentation and vote for various options, using individual hand controls.
The presentation took place on Wednesday 22 May and was presented by Nils Huehnergarth, President of New York based Static & Motion productions, Inc.
Mr. Huehnergarth said how honoured he was to have been chosen from the applications made by technology companies throughout the world and said:
"EIBTM is an ideal forum to introduce our new technology because the industry leaders who attend will truly appreciate this powerful next generation technology."
