Wieck to Manage Media Center for 2003 Sydney Motor Show

ADDISON, TX (October 14, 2003) - Wieck Media Services has been chosen to help create and manage the media center for the 2003 Sydney Auto Show, held on October 16-26 at the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre.

Wieck, a leader in digital media management and services, was selected by the organizers of the show to help design improvements, promote and operate the center. As car manufacturers display new models and make their Asian debut to the market, Wieck will provide the media with a complete library of text, graphics, photos, and digital videos of the innovate designs and models of cars and motorcycles at the show by utilizing databases, the Web and other technologies.

Because Wieck's founders are veterans of United Press International with world-wide connections within the media, Wieck has a deep understanding of what media companies need and how they consume digital images and other content. With this knowledge and expertise, Wieck is able to create and manage media centers that provide editors, reporters, photographers and producers with the information they need faster and more efficiently.

According to event organizers, the Sydney Motor show is one of Asia's largest auto exhibitions, with more than 320,000 attendees. The show produces two promotional catalogs and, according to event organizers, will "feature more cars, more publicity and more excitement" this year.
