CallCenterWorld® 2010 goes Interactive
Multi-channel customer communication and future trends are key themes for the 12th CallCenterWorld®. From 8 – 11 February 2010, the Estrel Convention Center in Berlin, Germany will again host Europe’s leading contact centre and customer management exhibition and congress.
In 2009, the annual event attracted 250 exhibitors and 7,500 international congress delegates and exhibition visitors.
Helga Haag, CallCenterWorld’s congress manager, looks forward to an exciting and interactive programme. She explains: “In 2010 we will look at the development of customer communication – how we can generate trust and intelligently use all available channels and networks.”
Topics for the pre-congress day (8 February), the strategy & operations day (9 and 10 February) and the workshop day (11 February) range from social media to the latest data protection regulations to creating customer and employee loyalty in difficult times.
For the first time CallCenterWorld® will feature a TED voting system to allow delegates greater interactivity. Congress visitors will enjoy active participation and influence in the panel discussions during the exhibition.
Helga added: “Visitors to CallCenterWorld® can look forward to a large number of national and international knowledge exchange sessions. Leading brands such as Arsenal Football Club, DHL, FedEx, Fitness First, Lufthansa, Telefónica, T-Mobile and UBS will share their experiences with the delegates. And trend researcher Sven Gábor Jánszky will give us his view on how he sees customer communication in the year 2020.”
CallCenterWorld® 2010 will feature again the popular LiveCallCenter – showcasing the latest technology and design trends.
We will present “Call 115” - an initiative of the German federal government, which started in the middle of this year. A single public sector service number – 115 – can be used by all German citizens to access information from local, state or federal authorities.
250 exhibitors will give visitors an extensive overview of current trends in customer communication – from voice portals to quality monitoring to personnel management solutions. CallCenterWorld® will again offer topic specific guided tours to help exhibition visitors to find their way around the 8,000 sqm large exhibition area.
With increasing interest from international exhibitors and visitors, for the second time, CallCenterWorld® 2010 features a partner country. Technology and service providers from the UK, Europe’s cradle of the call centre industry, will present their expertise at the Berlin show.
“We hope that we can repeat our 2009 success to completely sell out the exhibition.”says Sylke Dörr, senior sales manager for CallCenterWorld® . “Despite the economic situation all current indications are very positive and we have already more than 80% of available exhibition space booked up.”
Head of sales Michael Viljac adds: “We always do our best to make sure that all congress delegates, exhibition visitors and exhibitors feel extremely looked after and pampered during this four day event. With the amount of knowledge exchange, networking opportunities almost non-stop day and night, it has helped establish CallCenterWorld® into the must-attend event of the industry.”
