The Changing CE World took place on 10 and 11 November 2008 and focused on consumer electronics devices and consumer needs and brought together key industry figures for a two-day event that explored the business opportunities and challenges presented by market convergence, connectivity and competition, and the impact upon the associated industries.

Over the course of the conference, the changing consumer electronics landscape was explored, its performance charted over the last 12 months and the levels and types of business activity we can expect to see over the next five years were analysed.
