NextWindow opens out in Germany

Auckland touch screen maker NextWindow says leads collected at last week's CeBIT computer expo in Germany exceeded expectations.

NextWindow chief executive Al Monro says it will take him days to sort through the new contacts.

The company, which paid about $12,000 to exhibit at the event, was promoting products at the high-volume point of sale and kiosk end of the market, dominated by 3M and Elo TouchSystems, and in the large-screen market.

A New Zealand Trade and Enterprise stand at CeBIT housed representatives from 16 ICT firms.
