Why are we holding this event - Our purpose? 'The Connected Home' event on
24-25 September 2003, London, will offer a practical focused two-day
conference on the real implications, strategies and technology challenges
for the profitable implementation of the connected home to the European
market. The key goals of the show will be as follows;

· To bring together key industries that need to partner up to move the
market forward - device manufacturers, content providers, service
suppliers,
retailers, security companies, energy management, installers, and home
automation specialists. Our goal is to bring industries together that have
yet to be positioned within the same forum.

· To focus on 'service deployment' in the connected home market. Launching
services is the key to the success of the connected home market. As there
are already a plethora of devices available - it's now a question of
successfully partnering device, content and services suppliers.

· To focus on the 'practical' - the trials that are being launched and the
key learning's available. There is a tendency for many to give you a
visualisation of the house of the future - getting us to 'imagine' a future
where we will be able to control various aspects of the home from one
central until in the home. We want to try, where possible, to focus on
what'
s being delivered now.

· To bring together a good cross section of companies from Europe and the
USA - enabling as good cross comparison of learning's and the building of
relationships and alliances.
