Over 600 educational suppliers and more than 28,000 visitors are expected to be the magnet that brings together the global teaching and learning community for four days.


The BETT conference is known as a place to see exciting ideas, the latest technology, practical solutions, and new ways to put ICT at the heart of education. Special Zones and Feature Areas with titles like "Tomorrow's Learners Today" or "Special Needs Zone" or "Training Zone" are this year's attractions.


The organisers and sponsors of the BETT Awards have now published the BETT Awards 2007 shortlist. The winner in each category will be announced at the BETT Awards ceremony on Wednesday, 10 January 2007. The Awards play a key role in identifying and rewarding innovative ICT products and services that are effective in education, most of which will be available at the BETT show.
