Karlsruhe, May 2, 2013 - On the back of the HOSTING & SERVICE PROVIDER 
SUMMIT's successful debut last year, cloud technology providers, hosting 
companies and service providers are once again descending on Frankfurt, 
Germany on May 2 and 3, 2013 for this year's event. Representatives of 
asknet AG are present once again to provide visitors and IT experts with an 
insight into their international experience in e-commerce. 
 
This event is a meeting point for leading providers of cloud technologies 
and partners from the hosting and service provider segment. The focus of 
the summit is new business models and opportunities created by cloud 
computing technology and resulting requirements for the viable operation of 
high-tech hosting companies, such as sales through companies' own websites. 
Star-studded keynote speeches, user reports, discussion panels and 
networking events give participants a chance to evaluate the latest trends, 
technologies and business prospects. 
 
'We are delighted to get the chance to share our expertise in the world of 
international e-commerce with industry experts at such a top-class event 
and make an active contribution through Katja Speck's speech on risks and 
opportunities in international e-commerce.' says Michael Konrad, CEO of 
asknet AG. asknet offers localized e-commerce platforms and all 
corresponding services, such as international and local payment methods. 
The Karlsruhe-based company takes care of the entire sales process and 
provides native-speaking customer service in the respective local time 
zones. 'Thanks to our experience in international e-commerce, our customers 
benefit from an increased conversion rate - after all, we know where the 
pitfalls are with this technology and are ready to step in with our best 
practices,' says Konrad. 
 
The Hosting & Service Provider Summit 2013 takes place in the Villa Kennedy 
Hotel in Frankfurt am Main on May 2 and 3, 2013. For more information on
