Activities

• Workshop

A workshop is the best, most effective format when there are many suppliers and buyers who wish to meet each other. Since the market is so mature, there is a need to meet, receive updates on new products, and find new opportunities together.

Based on the feedback from last year’s workshop, we will extend the meeting time this year to 20 minutes.

In addition to the meetings, we will also arrange an activity which involves gastronomy, culture or adventure.
