The events between them are expected to attract 16,000 delegates and Cisco as the "Lead Partner for Network Infrastructure" under a partnership facilitated by the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) will provide a network that, in the main conference area alone will have close to 4,000 wired points, over 40 wireless access points and the latest security technologies. The conference venue will also have 50 IP communications kiosks showcasing customised XML applications being developed by Cisco partners NexLabs and Nanyang Polytechnic. The applications will be both general and conference-specific including real-time financial updates, weather alerts, flight schedules, and programme updates. Along with the annual meetings, the largest international financial sector conference ever hosted by Singapore, approximately 200 meetings and seminars will be held from September 13 to 20, 2006. These include the G-7 finance ministers' meeting, the programme of seminars, the Per Jacobsson Lecture and the Group of Thirty international banking seminar. The annual meetings, together with the series of prominent international forums, meetings, seminars, events and the inaugural Singapore Biennale 2006 (a two-month visual arts extravaganza from September 4 to November 12, 2006), are collectively known as Singapore 2006.
