The Camera & Imaging Products Association (CIPA), a consortium formed by major camera and imaging industry players including Canon, Casio, Nikon, Olympus, Panasonic and Sony, has created a new photo industry event in Japan called “CP+”, to be hosted by CIPA. The first exhibition of “CP+” is scheduled to be held in “Pacifico Yokohama” of Yokohama-city, Kanagawa, between March 11th and 14th, 2010.
The PIE (Photo Imaging Expo) which used to be held every March is now dissolved.
The goal of “CP+” is to create a new international photographic industry exhibition, comparable to Photokina [Germany] and PMA [USA]. CP+ hopes to be the ideal platform for camera equipment manufacturers, component/device suppliers and software developers to present their products and technologies on a global scale and to search for untapped business opportunities. Numerous lectures, seminars, galleries, panel discussions and speeches are planned to facilitate and nurture further development of the photographic society at large.
