Centaur Exhibitions Announces The Smart Home Show

["Mark McCall" <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Centaur Exhibitions is pleased to announce the launch of The Smart Home
Show
- the first UK consumer show to showcase the latest digital home solutions.
The Smart Home Show will bring together the best intelligent technological
solutions and products on the market, and will attract the many thousands
of
people who are eager to be at the forefront of innovation.

The smart home, with its integrated entertainment, technology and
automation, is finally becoming an affordable reality. With demand from
consumers growing fast, this market is set to explode in the next few
years,
but there is at present no independent place for consumers to discover what
is available and within their budget, and most importantly where to buy it.
The UK desperately needs a consumer exhibition to act as a catalyst for
this
massive burgeoning market.

The Smart Home Show will be co-located with Centaur's highly successful and
established National Homebuilding & Renovating Show, which attracted
45,576
visitors in 2004. Visitors to this show will be free to go across to The
Smart Home Show without charge. A survey of visitors to the 2004 exhibition
revealed that 53% would be interested in visiting The Smart Home Show.

The Smart Home Show will have its own entrance and a dedicated marketing
and
PR campaign designed to attract thousands of unique visitors who are early
adopters with a high disposable income. The tens of thousands of visitors
who cross over from the National Homebuilding & Renovating Show will
just be
the icing on the cake.

Nick Noble, Group Event Director at Centaur Exhibitions, comments "The
Smart
Home Show will help to educate and inspire thousands of consumers and will
lead to a very significant boost in business for the manufacturers and
installers who exhibit."
