Description

Cyber Exposition System and System for Implementing the Same}

The present invention relates to a trade fair system, and more particularly, a system for building a cyber trade fair that can be accessed through a communication network to obtain information about a plurality of participating companies and products of these participating companies, and cyber implemented using the same. It's about the fair system.

The site fair held in the physical space places a lot of time and space constraints on the booth company and the visitors. In particular, in the case of a company that has entered the booth, it is inevitable to rely on extremely limited and uniform means of promotion such as printed catalogs in promoting the company and product information. In most cases, companies and products cannot be promoted sufficiently. On the other hand, visitors or visitors who wish to visit due to the short exhibition period and their schedule limitations often give up the visit, and even if they are present, it is difficult to fully check the products of each exhibitor.

In order to overcome the limitations of the field fair, the concept of cyber fair has been introduced, and in some cases, it is actually implemented. However, since the conventional cyber fair is implemented and operated in a homepage manner, a separate homepage must be produced for each participating company, that is, a booth entering company. If there are hundreds of exhibitors, it is necessary to repeatedly produce hundreds of homepages manually, and accordingly, there is a problem in that a large amount of promotional files are individually generated for the companies in the exhibition booth. Therefore, in the case of large-scale fairs, the production of cyber booths will be very difficult.

Therefore, according to the conventional cyber fair implementation method, which depends on the homepage production method of each booth company, it is difficult to construct the site fair in the cyber space flexibly and actively in the situation where various field fair events are frequently held. Accordingly, it is virtually impossible to implement numerous booths of a field fair in real time or in real time using a conventional method, and there is currently no system for implementing a field fair in cyber space as it is.

In order to partially solve this problem, in recent years, a cyber fair site has been recently opened to partially introduce field fair information, or an independent pure cyber fair may be held. However, in the case of partially introducing the information on the site fair, it is not considered that the participating companies can fully achieve the desired purpose in attending the fair in cyber space, and they can provide sufficient product and company information for the visitors. Difficult to do On the other hand, in the case of pure cyber fairs, it is difficult to see enough to promote visitors' products or corporate image to visitors, and it is hard to see that they can provide current and timely information on visitors.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and in the form of a cyber booth on the Internet, which can reach as many as hundreds of booths to be held in real life in the real world by the operator or manager to maintain continuous management It is a technical task to provide a cyber fair system that can be easily and conveniently used by users.

In addition, the present invention provides a cyber fair construction system that allows a site fair organizer to implement a cyber fair associated with a site fair as it is, and to easily create a cyber booth corresponding to a plurality of field booths on the Internet. It is another technical problem to provide.

Meanwhile, the cyber fair building system may be supplied in the form of a solution loaded on a medium such as a CD so that others can implement the above cyber fair system. In addition, related hardware may also be supplied. The cyber fair building system is similar to the cyber fair system in terms of database configuration and program configuration, except that there is almost no actual data. In this case, the program supplier providing the cyber fair construction system does not have to hold the fair directly. Such a program will be omitted since it can be easily implemented by those skilled in the art from the above description of the cyber fair system.

The foregoing description merely illustrates a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited thereto and may be variously modified. For example, in the preferred embodiment described above, VBscript included in an ASP file is used as a program for storing, modifying, or calling data in a database so as to facilitate modification and management of the program. In an example, separate component software may be installed in the application instead of the ASP file containing such VBscript.

Those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains will understand that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without changing the technical spirit or essential features. Therefore, the above-described embodiments are to be understood as illustrative in all respects and not as restrictive. The scope of the present invention is shown by the following claims rather than the detailed description, and all changes or modifications derived from the meaning and scope of the claims and their equivalents should be construed as being included in the scope of the present invention. do.

As described above, the cyber fair construction system of the present invention allows a user or a visitor to be connected through an internet network, and enables the booths of hundreds of companies participating in the field fair to be implemented in the form of cyber booths on the Internet. Since the cyber fair can be continued for a certain period of time even after the site fair is closed, the system of the present invention can overcome the time limitations of the field fair. Therefore, the present invention enables to realize the popularization of the fair and to spread the exhibition culture to the general public, thereby enabling the exhibition and exhibition industry to be upgraded and activated. Since each cyber fair is run in conjunction with a site fair, the site fair can be used as an opportunity to fully promote the site fair and maximize the effectiveness of the fair. In addition, since the Internet is a global network that transcends borders, foreign buyers can grasp the companies and products of participating companies through cyber fairs without having to participate in Korea's fairs directly. It is clear that information can be provided and the opportunities for trading between domestic companies and foreign buyers can be expanded.
