RAI INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION & CONGRES CENTRE, AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS
=====================================================================
E-vision..................E-profit.....................E-commerce
You may be finding it difficult to keep track of the pace with which electronic
commerce has evolved in the last year. To enable you to follow and anticipate
this exciting and rapidly developing market, EEMA, together with the valued support
of the experts from Communications Week International, EDI-TIE, ECE, EDIFORUM,
ECP.NL, EDIFICE and through extensive research with its members has put together
a major, tightly focused, three day event. Electronic Commerce Europe 98. It
is the only Pan-European event to address the challenges and opportunities that
Internet commerce brings and its aim is to bring you totally up to date on the
current strategies and developments by acknowledged leaders in their respective
fields.
"Time"! - Captain James T Kirk is quoted as calling it "the final frontier" -
increasing demands are being made on existing staff, "getting more from less"
is a current trend. By joining an organisation such as EEMA and attending its
workshops and conferences you can achieve significant savings of your time and
resources - let EEMA monitor the market and through our specialist groups keep
you updated in the areas of the market, which are critical to you.
This is a conference organised by the industry for the industry, with special
focus on large and small users; any surplus revenue is reinvested in creating
greater awareness of the benefits of electronic commerce. My colleagues and I
look forward to meeting you in Amsterdam.

AMSTERDAM
=========
Cosmopolitan and colourful, Amsterdam has always been a thriving commercial and
industrial centre. In Amsterdam, the Dutch Capital, you can mix business with
pleasure as nowhere else. The mixture of picturesque historic sites, haute cuisine,
nightlife, galleries and museums has made Amsterdam into one of the world's best
congress cities.
Amsterdam is a relatively small city by European standards. Many of the points
of interest are within easy walking distance. Public transport in Amsterdam -
buses, trams and metro - is most efficient, modern, reliable and cheap.
