OBJECTIVE

The 3D industry (stereoscopic, volumetric and holographic) is much more diverse and rich than most people realize. There are over 40 distinct market/application segments offering 3D solutions today. But there is little awareness of these applications across the industry, which is hindering the sharing of technology and solutions. There is also a key need to educate the customer community about the maturity and sophistication of 3D solutions. All this is needed to move the 3D industry from a series of niche applications to a broad market force with mainstream solutions.

As a result, Insight Media (IM) and the US Display Consortium (USDC) have organized the 3D Business Symposium & Exhibition (3D Biz-Ex). Our goal is create a “Big Tent” environment that will bring together developers, providers and customers in all of these 3D market/application segments. This has never been done before, and we believe it will create a unique environment for attendees to:

• Gauge the full scope of the diverse 3D industry

• Learn about other 3D applications

• Network with other leaders in the industry

• Develop technology/solution partnerships

• Help customers understand the maturity and benefits of 3D solutions

• Allow leaders to understand the key business issues facing market expansion

• Enable greater understanding of technology innovations, market dynamics and strategic opportunities

• Lay the groundwork for a major exhibition expansion in 2008

We invite you to attend this important event to take advantage of the excellent opportunity to meet with industry professionals and media representatives.
