Having put the show on ice last year, allowing its exhibitors to "concentrate their efforts on optimising their businesses during the peak of the world recession," organisers feel the time is right for a recovery-boosting show.The show will follow the same format as the successful 2008 debut event, which saw 65 exhibiting companies attend - 60% coming from outside Italy - and 6,783 visitors from 35 nations.
APIAS, the Italian association of manufacturers and importers of equipment for the entertainment industry, which represents some of the most important and distinguished firms in the trade in Italy, confirms its utmost commitment to working together with ENTE FIERA PROMOBERG towards a show with top ranking participants including designers and consultants; architects and interior designers; rental companies; theatres, museums and local authorities; TV and cinema production companies; concert, show and event organisers; specialist installers and retailers; and importers and international distributors.
