Cutting-Edge Display Technology to be Showcased
at Display Week 2007 Exhibition

SAN JOSE, Calif., May 11 - "The best way to predict the future is to invent it," stated the American computer scientist Alan Kay in 1971. When it comes to information displays, the place to see how the future is being invented is the Exhibition Hall at Display Week 2007: The SID International Symposium, Seminar & Exhibition, which is taking place this month at the Long Beach Convention Center in Long Beach, California, USA.

The Display Week Exhibition is the nursery of the industry, where leading global information-display companies proudly unveil the most cutting-edge developments in display technology for the first time. More display innovations are introduced year after year at Display Week than at any other display show in the world. Display Week is where the world got its first look at the technologies that now shape the display world, such as HDTV, LCD, Plasma, DLP, LED, OLED, and FED, to name a few. For 2007, advances in flexible displays and e-paper, as well as in OLED and FED TVs, are expected to be among the hot topics emanating from the Exhibit Hall.

In 2007, the exhibition will feature nearly 300 exhibiting companies in approximately 58,000 square feet of exhibition space. Whether you like your displays big, small or anything in between, the only place to see the most innovative display products in the world is at Display Week 2007 Exhibition, which opens on May 22 and runs through May 24 as part of the larger Display Week event. The hours of the exhibition are as follows:

Tuesday, May 22: 10:30 am - 6:30 pm
Wednesday, May 23: 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
Thursday, May 24: 9:00 am - 2:00 pm

Included among the exhibitors at Display Week 2007 are 48 companies that will be exhibiting at Display Week for the first time or will be returning after not exhibiting at Display Week for the past several years. These companies, which cover just about every aspect of the display industry, hail from 10 different countries and represent the growing worldwide interest in the display industry. Overall, Display Week 2007 exhibitors hail from 16 countries.

For the fourth consecutive year, the Display Week Exhibition will host the German Pavilion, sponsored by the German Federal Ministry of Economy and organized by the German Flat Panel Display Forum (DFF).
