Electronics Extravaganza in KES 2011
When someone tells you to "be smart" what do you do? Most people would start looking around and trying to spot the problem before its mentioned in the conversation. Some other people might say "I am, always." But this year, if someone tells you to "be smart" you can instantly reply "Yes, I'm going to the 42nd Korea Electronics Show." Because that's the motto.
Be Smart, the 42nd Korea Electronics Show (KES), begins this October. From the 12th to the 15th this year, KES will once again showcase the IT icons of the nation. This year the show is expected to emphasize the convergence between software and hardware. How will software meet hardware to brighten up the IT industry as well as improving the quality of our lives? The answers lie within KES 2011.
