London Internet World Exhibition - Internet Boom is Back
Posted under
Online Economy
London Internet World exhibitors have filled three quarters of London Olympia 2 hall for the first time since the 1999 and 2000. That is 171 exhibitors, and a projected 10,000 visitors. With no less than three mapping services in attendance; streetmaps.co.uk, multimap.com and mapsolute, compared with only mapquest.com in 1999.
The figures touted by most presenters today were
- 28m UK online shoppers
- £30bn in online UK sales
- 30% yearly growth rates
- 65% of car owners to re-insure online
- Amazon.co.uk set a record of 480,000 shipped in one day, on the 18th of December 2005
Heady stuff. The rumor is that boo.com, the £185m disaster the UK internet bust flagship, will be resurrected this year.
