Healthy CES report bodes well for Asian B2B media

Business Week's Heather Green pointed us towards the Consumer Electronics Association's annual forecast released just before the opening of the Consumer Electronics Show, "the world's largest consumer technology tradeshow". "Factory-to-dealer sales of consumer electronics are projected to exceed $155 billion in 2007, or seven percent growth", the release says.

This is good news for Asia's B2B media; print publishers, web site operators and trade fair organisers serving Asian manufacturers all rely very heavily on healthy growth in the consumer electronics sector.
