Electronica success
The show had 78,000 visitors which is an excellent result. Anything above 70,000 is good. This year’s total beat the 75,000 of 2004 and is the highest ever.
So Electronica is showing no signs of the fate which has overtaken so many of the great electronics shows. It is not declining. That’s an excellent thing. It means the industry has at least one, unspecialized, unfocussed event where everyone goes to meet suppliers, customers, rivals, and colleagues.
At last I see the ‘naked lady of Halle A6’ who I’d missed in Munich. In fact there were two of them which hadn’t realised before. Thanks to Matthew for sending me a video-link.
If there’s still no one who’s seen the talking point of Electronica 2006, then here’s the link:

My apologies to Green Hills whose stand I had previously thought they were on. In fact they graced the Congatech stand.
