Welcome from the CEO of Wincor Nixdorf

Welcome!

Dear Customers and Partners,

"Communicating Visions." That is the title for Wincor World 2004. And for good reason: from February 3 to 5, we aim to provide you first hand with strategies and know-how and give you an overview of the latest technologies.

Wincor World is turning into an international event in the industry. It not only offers the exhibition, but workshops with experts from the field and a symposium for cutting-edge issues in retail and banking.

We are particularly delighted that the European Retail Institute (EHI) and the Ministry of Economics and Labor of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia has issued an invitation to the prestigious Retail Innovation Day as part of Wincor

World and so enhanced the status of the event.

Over an area of more than 10,000 square meters, we and 60 partners are presenting products, solutions and service that reduce complexity and costs, optimize processes and strengthen customer loyalty. The contents focus on banking and retail companies. In addition, we are showing how other companies with well-developed branch structures, such as service station operators, postal service providers, hospitality or lottery businesses can profit from what we have to offer.

We warmly welcome you to come and convince yourself of the expertise and performance that Wincor Nixdorf and its partners can offer. Use Wincor World as a platform for sharing experience and a fertile source for new ideas and food for thought.

I look forward to your visit!

Karl-Heinz Stiller President andCEO Wincor Nixdorf
