'A World of Opportunities' is the theme of Acorn World '94, which takes place at Wembley Exhibition Centre from October 28-30th. The show has already attracted support from many leading companies and is set to be the largest ever showcase for Acorn products and services worldwide. The show will include a series of themed feature areas, providing a glimpse of technological innovation in the interactive media, publishing, education and home business sectors. These areas will demonstrate the innovative synergy Acorn can provide between the home, the classroom and the office.

An exciting themed 'games arcade' will show off the latest in computer game technology, confirming Acorn's traditional strength in the home user market. Children will also be able to venture into the Superchoice Laser Labyrinth at the same time as having their pulses monitored by Acorn equipment in a massive health experiment. Treasure hunts, laser light shows, face painters and jugglers are only some of the other activities available for children visiting during the half-term period.
