IFA Global Press Conference 2017 is happening this weekend in Lisbon, Portugal. I will be covering this consumer electronics and home appliances showcase, as part of a small group of media the show organisers invited from Singapore.
The media delegation from Singapore is part of an international corp invited by Messe Berlin, the organisers of IFA and this Global Press Conference.
IFA this year will be from 1-6 September, 2017.
As a lead-up to the actual trade show in September, the organisers have gathered some of the key exhibitors and media from around the world in a preview mini-show, featuring product showcases, as well as briefs and presentations on the latest trends on consumer electronics and home appliances.
Stay tuned over the next few days (especially 21-22 Apr, Fri-Sat) when the show will be in full tilt.
I’ll be bringing along a couple of newest and latest gadgets to try out during the trip.

CES Asia is owned and produced by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) and co-produced by Shanghai Intex Exhibition Co., Ltd (Shanghai Intex).
In its third year, CES Asia showcases the breadth and depth of the innovation value-chain in the Asian consumer technology marketplace. The show will be held at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC).
Vehicle technology will be spearheaded by three major auto manufacturers –Hyundai, NEVS and Volvo.
“Self-driving technologies and connected car capabilities are changing our world – from thousands of lives being saved on the roads each year, increased mobility and reductions in traffic and resulting carbon emissions to ride sharing options and a new world of device to device communication for real-time sharing of information between vehicles, roadside infrastructure and pedestrian devices. Cars have never been smarter, roads have never been safer and the possibilities for this not-so-distant future will be on display at CES Asia 2017,” said Gary Shapiro, president and CEO, CTA.
Major vehicle technology companies will be on hand at CES Asia showcasing the full supply chain of vehicle tech, including Baidu, Continental, NavInfo, Pioneer and Volvo.
Featured automotive technology will be on display both on the show floor and outdoor exhibit space.
According to CTA research, factory-installed technologies, from entertainment systems to driver-assist features, make up an estimated 50 percent of the collective value in new vehicles, up from about 25 percent just 10 years ago.
More than 300 companies are already slated to exhibit, including 3M, Audio-Technica, Baidu, Changhong Electric, Continental, Digital China, DJI, Fossil/Misfit, Garmin, Gibson Brands, Goertek, Haier, Huawei, Hyundai, Konka Group, LeEco, Monster, NavInfo, NEVS, Onkyo, OtterBox, Pioneer, PPTV, Scosche, Suning, United States Postal Service, UPS, Valeo, Volvo, Voxx, Wacom and Yuneec.

Have you done your backup recently? There’s no time like NOW!
Join the Twitter Party on #AcronisWBD at 4pm today to learn about backup and win prizes!
Established in 2011, World Backup Day serves to remind people the importance of protecting their data.
#AcronisWBD Twitter Party today 4pm
I have been invited by Acronis to co-host a Twitter Party today from 4-5pm, so we can have some fun learning more about backup, answer some quiz questions and win some prizes along the way.
I will be posing a question on data security and will be giving away a Polaroid Zip mobile printer to a lucky Twitter follower who tweets the correct answer.
So do join us on Twitter via the hashtag #AcronisWBD. Just click on the link.
Good Luck!
So backup now by making a copy of your data so you won’t lose it in case something happens to your computer.
So even if you’re hit by a virus, hardware failure, natural disaster, or anything else, you can restore your system from a reliable backup.
Here are three ways you can backup your data.
- External media. There is a wide variety of external storage media you can choose, including USB drives, external hard drives, DVDs and more.
- Cloud storage. Your internet connection means there are many cloud storage services available to you. Some are free, some you pay for.
- Network drives. If your computer is on a local area network (LAN), you can backup to a network folder or network attached storage (NAS) device.
