I hear Europeans like to date as well. Seems like Europe is virgin territory! Anyone with any interest in making money in Europe needs to have representation at this conference. It’s in English as well 🙂
Correct Mark. Europe is VERY much virgin territory. I figured someone has to drag the execs in North America to Europe. Whether they like it or not, it is a market they should not avoid.
The US Market is maturing. When that happens, prices will begin to erode and consolidation will begin. Some see it happening already. I see it reaching maturity in mid-2005 to early 2006.
That’s why companies need to be in other markets. The internet in Europe is like the USA in 1998. Bandwidth is becoming available and more people are surfing/discovering the internet.
So, IDate2004 Nice will focus on Europe. Lets see how it pans out 🙂
Oh yeah….save the date: May 12-13, 2005….. HONG KONG…..focus on the FAR EAST market.
