NetNation Communications Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board/NNCI --
CS Sneak 10/99) exhibited at CeBIT 2000 in Hanover, Germany 2/24
- 3/1 -- the world's largest information technology & telecommunications
trade fair -- there are 7,500 exhibitors from 70 countries, & 650,000
attendies. I attended several trade fairs in Hanover when I was
president of a public company -- they make the ones here seem pretty
tiny.
In Germany, a trade fair is much different from here. When I visited
a booth & indicated I wanted to discuss buying, I was escorted to
a room behind the display area -- it was furnished like a living
room. I was served fine wine & discussed my needs with top officials.
The idea of trade fairs in Europe is to conduct business, not just
display products. NNCI is growing fast -- watch it. That means checking
its news releases about once a week. Call John Gomez, IR @ NNCI
@ 604-688-8946, fax 604-688-8934, e-mail gomez@netnation.com, or
write 1410 - 555 West Hastings St., Vancouver, B.C., Canada V6B
