International technology transfer (Panel)

Abstract

For the past two and one half decades, USA suppliers have generally dominated the computer graphics marketplace, providing an estimated 90 percent of computer graphics shipments worldwide. In the past few years, however, a number of non-USA sources have begun to develop products which not only have captured a growing percentage of their domestic markets, but also have begun to be competitive worldwide. USA companies have increasingly turned to non-USA sources for licenses and products. This panel brings together executives from European, Asian and South African companies to discuss the growing exchange of computer graphics technology among USA and non-USA suppliers.
