Expodental Meeting 2023, staged in Rimini from May 18 to 20, closed its doors recording a very positive balance for what concerns the exhibition part and instead has to deal with the tragedy that struck Emilia Romagna for the number of visitors attended and the scientific program.
More than 300 companies exhibited at Expodental Meeting on a total gross area of 56,000 square meters, while visitor numbers were down 40 percent from 2022.
More than 70 events with about 150 speakers were scheduled on the calendar, but not all of them could take place and for some courses speakers were connected online.
UNIDI, in collaboration with ITA, welcomed to Expodental Meeting a rich foreign delegation composed of more than 60 dealers from 24 countries-Albania and Kosovo, Azerbaijan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Colombia, Estonia, Ethiopia, Georgia, Japan, Jordan, India, Iran, Iceland, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Palestine, Poland, Romania, Slovenia, Thailand, Turkey, Uganda, and Vietnam.
This is an important result that testifies to the joint efforts of UNIDI and ITA Agency, always at the side of Italian entrepreneurs, and Italian Exhibition Group, the trade fair SpA that hosts Expodental Meeting in its Rimini exhibition center.
The foreign delegation arrived in Rimini despite the difficulties and 650 b2b meetings were organized with Italian companies. Several times during Expodental Meeting 2023, May 18-20, we affirmed our closeness to the people of Emilia Romagna hard hit by the flood.
“We are particularly close to this land also because for years it has welcomed us with great hospitality and professionalism,” says UNIDI President Fabio Velotti (pictured), “and we want to thank Rimini for hosting us even at this tragic juncture. Warm thanks are also due to all the exhibiting companies and visitors who overcame a thousand difficulties to reach us and to all the Associations, Universities and scientific partners who worked with UNIDI on the training program, confirming its indispensability.”
Expodental Meeting as it has always been known has come to a close; from next year, in fact, the event will be completely renewed with new services dedicated to exhibitors and visitors.
In fact, the new communication campaign will see them as protagonists alongside the companies that have always been the beating heart of this sector.
Appointment, therefore, in May 2024, from the 16th to the 18th, always at the South Gate, always in Rimini.
