    Now in its fifteenth year, a wide and varied list of vendors will
participate alongside specially invited CE & IT buyers from the European
retail community. To date, more than 180 have registered to attend.

    Over the course of the event, multiple industry insight sessions will be
led by a select group of retail experts including Dr. Rudolf Aunkofer, Global
Research Director IT, at GfK Retail & Technology and Bob Snyder, Editor in
Chief, The Distribution Channel. Dr Aunkofer will be presenting an overview
of the European retail market - "What's Selling & What's Not" referencing
GFK's recent report on "The IT Market 2010".

    "As the pioneers of the 'Hosted Buyer' model, RetailVision Europe has
been instrumental in facilitating long-term and lucrative partnerships
between 1000s of technology vendors and leading European retailers, e-tailers
and distributors. Our hosted buyer programme makes it easy for top buyers to
be present at the show, maximising the sales potential for our solution
providers.

    We also have an excellent track record of bringing new products to the
European market and helping vendors increase their market share. This year's
event, combining a showcase-led exhibition with industry insight sessions,
private boardroom appointments and pre-arranged one-to-one meetings, will
provide more opportunities than ever for innovative manufacturers to meet and
influence the key people who will ensure their future business growth," said
