electronica München 2008With a constantly high number of exhibitors and visitors, electronica 2008 sent out some positive signals to the international electronics industry. 
The trade fair attracted around 2,800 exhibitors, 58% of whom came from abroad. Approximately 73.000 trade visitors were recorded at electronica 2008. The number of visitors from Central and Eastern European countries, Taiwan, Brazil, South Africa and Russia was higher than in previous years. 
Compared with previous events, however, there were fewer visitors from the USA, the United Kingdom, France and Israel. These decreases are due both to the current economic situation and companies’ tighter travel restrictions which meant that the number of visitors per company declined. 
Exhibitors and visitors were very satisfied with the outcome of electronica 2008. In particular, they awarded top marks to the completeness and range of the exhibited products and services, electronica’s position as the main trade fair for the electronics industry, its leading role, the presence of market leaders and the internationality of exhibitors.
