Satellite Pavilion
Satellite offers a quick and economical means of establishing communications network solutions, which are
equally well suited to all stages of a developing network. Technological developments have produced VSATs which
allow TV, voice and data networks. With a huge population of over 60 million consumers, but telephone
penetrations as low as 11%, Central Asia has tremendous potential for long term development. With Kazakhstan
being the most important country for the Central Asian satellite industry, the Satellite Pavilion at
KITEL '99 is expected to enjoy unprecedented attention from regional and international companies.

Broadcast Pavilion
Developments in the international broadcasting industry change alarmingly quickly. Central Asian broadcasting
stations and companies have an inherent need for the latest state-of-the-art equipment, products and services.
KITEL '99 is the forum where the central Asian broadcast industry gathers to see and learn about new
technologies and opportunities. The services of consultancies and advisors are becoming increasingly important
as the region's broadcasters bring themselves in the 20th century. The Broadcast Pavilion at KITEL '
99 will provide the media in which to reach them.

the central Asian region. Exclusively for the radio industry, KITEL '99 will bring together the radio
industry's leading companies to lead the Central Asian radio industry into the 21st century. The Radio
Pavilion at KITEL '99 will provide the foremost radio event in the region with a comprehensive
range of ideas, emerging opportunities, innovative products and entertainment.

Electro-Components Pavilion
ITE has launched the electrocomponent pavilion in response to industry demand for an electronic components and
assembly equipment exhibition targeting Kazakhstan where there are now unprecedented opportunities for
companies entering this market.
Following a difficult period in the wake of the transformation of the Russian economy the Electronics market is
now clearly demonstrating signs of recovery. The well publicised demand for consumer electronics, PC's and
communications equipment has resulted in massive imports of foreign goods. The private sector is now the
driving force behind the recovery of Kazakhstan. Entrepreneurs are able to buy components cheaply, take
advantage of traditional skills and inexpensive labour.
Kazakh companies are however still finding the market economy a difficult environment in which to survive and
the main beneficiaries of the high technologies developed in Kazakhstan will be foreign companies. By putting
funds into Kazakhstan joint ventures foreign partners gain access to this technology and are able to cheaply
produce prototypes.
Machinery and equipment for the manufacture of electronic components is in demand from local and international
companies. Ample opportunity exists for international suppliers to sell into Kazakhstan, both to Kazakhstan
companies and to international companies who manufacture there; for example Hewlett Packard. Already Sony,
Phillips, NEC and LG Electronics are increasing their supply of components to the region. The whole field of
assembly represents considerable opportunity, not only for the supply of assembly equipment but also production
of Busses, Boards and packaged devices to the OEM 's.
