A product

The Netbook market has seen astonishing growth since 2007 and should reach 50 milllion units in 2010 (ref. Gartner Group Report).

Technology, price, functionality and adaptability to multiple targets make the Netbook an innovative product.

A community

The aim of this conference is to review the state of the market, its technology, its key players and its core trends.

The key players will outline their offers, strategies and results:

  • the manufacturers of chips and mother boards,
  • the ODMs, essentially Taiwanese, who design and produce Netbooks,
  • the OEMs who distribute under their trade name,
  • software publishers who supply the operating systems and applications for Netbooks,
  • telecom operators who distribute these machines and furnish their connectivity functionality.
