The Government has offered Australia's three mobile operators, and vividwireless, renewal of their existing spectrum allocated on 15 year licences in the late 90s and early 2000s at set prices, while the Government expects to rake in $3 billion.
According to Deutsche Messe AG subsidiary Hannover Fairs
Australia, its little sister show at the Sydney Convention and
Exhbition Centre from May 12-14, CeBIT Australia 2009, is shaping up to
be the biggest event the company has held in Australia - unlike the
declining Hannover show.
Hannover Fairs Australia Managing Director Jackie Taranto, who led a
delegation of top research and business leaders to CeBIT Hannover, said:
"We'’ve actually drawn strength from what we saw in Hannover, and we’re
more confident than ever that CeBIT Australia 2009 will be the biggest
event we’ve held in Australia in its eight year history.
“"There
is enormous interest from business users in new, low-cost solutions
that let them gain efficiencies without having to dig deep for capital
outlays. We expect record numbers of visitors through the doors at
CeBIT Australia, and we think our conference program – which has been
tailored to suit the difficult times – will be especially well
attended.”"
CeBIT Australia 2009 opens at the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre at Darling Harbour from May 12-14.
The event include five separate technology conferences held on-site at
the event, including AusInnovate, the nation’s peak
R&D/commercialisation forum sponsored by top public sector research
agencies NICTA, CSIRO ICT Centre and the Defence Science and Technology
Organisation (DSTO, and the e-Government Forum, sponsored by the
Australian Government Information Management Office (AGIMO).
The
other conferences are Access 2009, a peak business telecommunication
event; WebForward 2009, a two-day conference on internet-based 2.0
technologies for business; and Enterprise 2009, a event focused on the
latest cost-effective technology to maximise business returns.
