| MUMBAI: With two months to go before the opening of the sports
television forum Sportel Monaco 2006, exhibitors have committed to more than 85
per cent of the expanded floor space in the Grimaldi Forum. The event takes place
from 16-19 October 2006. Exhibitors include Total
Sports Asia, A1GP World Cup Of Motorsport, AGFIS, Alcatel, BBC Worldwide, EBU,
PGA Tour, HBO, the NBA and World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). Sportel CEO David Tomatis
says, " We have opened up every corner of the exhibition floor to add more
stands and it is virtually certain that we will sell all existing space in the
coming weeks. “We are continuing to focus on exciting new technologies
involving the reception of sports content on mobile receivers, along with our
traditional base of international TV sports. Sportel Monaco 2006 may very well
be our largest market ever.” |
