Belarusian Companies Took Part in CeBIT-2005

International exhibition CeBIT-2005 has come to its end in Hannover, Germany.

Belarus took part in this forum devoted to computing novelties, sharing a 200 square meter stand with Russia and the Ukraine. Developments from the Technology Park of the Belarusian National Technical University — Metolit — were on display. The show should help promote their products to Northern American and Eastern European markets, building on last year’s export of IT-services (Belarus, Russia and Ukraine’s combined efforts made almost $800 million).

The annual CeBIT exhibition is one of the biggest and most important in the world — often called an Olympiad of ideas and solutions and an “event for those who rely on information technology”. This year, the forum was divided into three directions: Business Processes, Communications and Digital Equipment and Systems. For the first time, visitors were able to see pavilions devoted to digital photo and image processing, navigation systems and maps. Computer games were not neglected as the World Cyber Games-2005 forum took place as part of the exhibition.
