"We are delighted that CommunicAsia has continued to serve the infocomm industry well over the last 30 years. This is a remarkable feat and the show's ability and readiness to persistently evolve will ensure its relevance for the decades to come," said Mr Victor Wong, Project Director of event organiser, Singapore Exhibition Services. "CommunicAsia's leading position in Asia will be even more evident in these difficult times. As companies become more cautious with spending, both exhibitors and trade visitors will limit their participation to only the most important events."

CommunicAsia2007, together with BroadcastAsia2007 and CGOverdrive2007, garnered the Exhibition of the Year Award at the Singapore Business Events Awards, organized by the Singapore Exhibition and Convention Bureau (SECB) of the Singapore Tourism Board (STB). This is a testament to the contribution and success of CommunicAsia as the staple trade show for infocomm industry professionals from the region and beyond.

The shows will return to Singapore Expo from 16 -- 19 June 2009. CommunicAsia2009 will feature key technologies that draw huge interest and demand from the market. The show saw strong growth in the WiMAX, IPTV and mobile entertainment segments in 2008, attracting good crowds at the show. These clusters will return in 2009, with new "hot" technology additions like Navigation and Location-based Services, Femtocell and Green IT.
