2010 DISTREE XXL event starts next week

Consumer electronics bigwigs meet for serious networking.

More than 400 senior IT and consumer electronics distributors are making their way to Monaco for the 2010 edition of DISTREE XXL [1]. They'll arrive next week from over 80 countries in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia (EMEA) for the invitation only event from 8th to 11th February.

DISTREE XXL is notable for its one-on-one meetings that are arranged through the event organizer before delegates arrive in Monaco. For the first time this year, e-tailers have been invited to participate alongside the more traditional channel representatives. The 2010 edition once again hosts a VIP Strategy Forum for the top 50 vendors and the 50 most important distributors who have access to expert speakers. Also on the program are the EMEA Channel Academy Awards, which will be presented after live electronic voting by the attendees.
