Design focus at show

Organisers of the Munich optical trade show next January, Opti '10 are laying on special training courses for exhibitors to make sure they get the best out of the event.

The show, which runs from January 15 to 17 in halls C1 to C4 at the Neue Messe in Munich, is majoring on design and service for the 2010 event. The show will feature a Walk of Frame catwalk event and a display of the latest in German design. The venue itself has also undergone some re-design with covered entrances and new walkways between the halls. Visitors are being tempted with chill out areas, while exibitors are being invited to take part in free training courses ahead of the event.
