Munich, Nov. 30 - The electronica trade show in Munich earlier this month attracted more than 3,000 exhibitors and 75,000 attendees, according to event organizer Munich Trade Fairs International. These numbers are almost equal to those released regarding the last show in 2002.

Overall feedback was positive; 85% of exhibitors and attendees surveyed assessed the market's future as "excellent to good."

Non-German attendance rose 10% from the previous show, making up 42% of total visitors. According to the organizer, 86% of attendees were identified as decision-makers for their companies.

 "We spent quality time with customers in a relaxed atmosphere here at our booth," said Alden Chauvin, VP of worldwide sales for Intersil, a manufacturer of high performance analog solutions. "We've had meeting after meeting and business has been great, which is no surprise at electronica."  

The next electronica will take place Nov. 14-17, 2006, at the New Munich Trade Fair Centre.
