In the year of its 70th anniversary celebrations, which make Vicenzaoro the world’s longest-running sector event, the Show will host 1,200 exhibitors in IEG’s Expo Centre in Vicenza, 40% of whom will be foreign from 35 countries worldwide, with Turkey, China, Hong Kong, Germany, Thailand and Belgium leading the way.
A business marketplace for sector operators from all over the world thanks to Italian Trade Agency and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation’s incoming programme, Vicenzaoro will welcome more than 450 buyers from 60 countries mainly from the United States, the Emirates, China and Spain and France for Europe.
