Toonz Animation short-listed for Global Tech Showcase
Thiruvananthapuram: The city-based Toonz Animation India Ltd, one of the premier animation studios in Asia, has been short-listed for the Global Tech Showcase 2008 (GTS-2008), an international business event that will be held in La Brule, France, in June this year.
The show will offer opportunities for companies from around the world to launch and accelerate their businesses in Europe.
Hundreds of corporate and political leaders as well as government officials and ministers from Europe will attend the event.
In a press release issued here Thursday, Toonz said it was selected after extensive review of over 700 companies by the GTS-2008 selection committee.
