Of these funds were leased. m of space is one and a half times more than last year (2 thousand square meters).

According to Kommersant , this year Russia, using the status of a partner, conducts an active advertising campaign of the national information technology market as a whole at CeBIT. The latter confirms the fact: a third of the Russian stands at CeBIT talks about technology parks being built by 2010. It was supposed that President Putin would come to CeBIT, but this did not happen. But the central exposition of Russia was visited by German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Several Russian exhibitors on the first day of the exhibition managed to find partners. For example, 1C has found a company that will test the 1C: Enterprise solution adapted for the German market. And Interregional Transit Telecom has signed an agreement with British Telecom on interconnection establishment, which implies direct connection of networks without intermediaries and traffic exchange.
