CEDIA to Unveil New Exhibit at 2004 Industry Trade Shows (23/12/2003)

"CEDIA Dome" - a high-energy source of education about the custom electronics industry

The Custom Electronic Design and Installation Association (CEDIA) has built a new traveling display that will educate professionals about the custom electronics lifestyle and the role CEDIA members play in the development of this exciting industry.

For the first time, CEDIA will unveil its new "CEDIA Dome" on January 19-22, 2004, at the International Builders Show in Las Vegas. The trade booth will travel both nationally and internationally throughout 2004 to three additional trade shows.

CEDIA Dome, packed with countless cutting-edge electronics elements from plasma screens to revolutionary audio systems, provides a fully automated presentation about the pivotal role CEDIA members play in bringing the world of custom electronics to life.

Since 1989, CEDIA has been educating the world about the benefits of hiring CEDIA certified professionals to design and install custom electronics systems for the home. This new exhibit will help solidify CEDIA's message to electronics professionals and to architects, builders and interior designers who benefit from partnership with CEDIA members.

Described as Las Vegas and Epcot wrapped into one, the CEDIA Dome will engulf viewers in stunning audio and visual presentations that are as much educational and informative about CEDIA's purpose as they are spectacular and entertaining. The high-intensity production will provide information on home theater, security, lighting control and networking-all areas of service CEDIA members can provide to consumers.

"Because CEDIA has so much to offer consumers as well as interior designers, builders and architects, we felt a need to encapsulate all of that into one exciting presentation," said Andy Willcox, chairman of CEDIA's Industry Related Events Council. "Our hope is that anyone who travels through the CEDIA Dome will emerge with a complete understanding of CEDIA and be invigorated by the possibilities of the custom electronics industry."

The CEDIA Dome will also appear at the following trade shows:

* Integrated Systems Europe, February 3-5, 2004, Geneva, Switzerland

* American Institute of Architects, June 10-12, 2004, Chicago, Ill.

* CEDIA EXPO 2004, September 8-12, 2004, Indianapolis, Ind.
