The SES shows keep rolling. Our German show opened today in Munich. While small by USA standards, our third try in Germany has been a charm.

We moved the show from the fall time period to the spring and also ran the program in German instead of English. Another postiive factor in this year's success is that amongst the exhibitors we have Microsoft, Yahoo and Google. Google ran its Google University program today to a standing room only crowd.

We are tentatively planning a French edition of SES for Paris this fall. We already run SES in Sweden (October), England (June) and Germany (April). Plans are also afoot to run a one-day mini-SES in Milan in the fall.

We had tentatively announced a Beijing, China show in June, but we could not line up all the pieces to run the event this year. However, we have a plan for a new effort for May 2006.

I just returned from 9 days in Europe and leave on Monday for Tokyo, Japan and Sydney, Australia. I will be working on JupiterImage projects in both countries, but will take in the SES Japan show on April 20th. It has been and will be a hectic travel schedule, but "one must strike while the iron is hot".
