As much as 70 per cent of the exhibition space at the first Intersource Hardware Asia, which is due to be held in Hong Kong from 13 to 16 April 2004, has already been booked. The fair is being organised jointly by a subsidiary of Koelnmesse and Adsale Exhibition Services. What is more, on 14 and 15 April there will be a conference concentrating on technical and marketing questions. A subsidiary of the TÜV Rheinland, a German service company in the field of materials testing, is involved in organising the conference.
