The year 2024 has proven to be one of great achievements for Italian Fair Service, which continues to stand out as a key player in the international exhibition landscape. With a remarkable 121 fairs attended in 16 different countries, we have increased our presence at major international fairs by 20%, showcasing our ever-expanding catalog of events across all key markets. This year’s destinations included: Italy, France, Spain, the United States, Germany, the United Arab Emirates, Algeria, the Netherlands, Albania, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Turkey, Austria, the United Kingdom, India, and China.
The year also marked an extraordinary milestone in exhibition spaces sold. With 13,144 square meters sold, we achieved a 30% increase compared to 2023, a testament to our commitment to meeting the demands of a constantly evolving market.
A significant highlight of our 2024 was the collaboration with IFEMA Madrid, one of our most prestigious partners and a symbol of international excellence. This partnership continues to strengthen, with IFEMA increasingly expanding beyond the borders of Madrid by establishing new delegations in various countries and planning the organization of fairs in locations such as Brazil, Colombia, Chile, and Mexico. Thanks to this collaboration, we have been able to offer our clients new opportunities for expansion and visibility, contributing to their success in global markets.
Lastly, a key highlight of 2024 was Go International, the fair dedicated to export services, organized by our specialized company Trade Events in collaboration with AICE (Italian Foreign Trade Association). This event has become a benchmark for companies looking to expand into foreign markets, offering unique opportunities for networking, training, and business development. It attracted over 150 exhibitors (with a satisfaction rate exceeding 94%) and more than 2,300 visitors. Looking ahead to 2025, we are pleased to announce the introduction of two new dedicated sections within the fair: Africa International Expo and America Latina Expo, further expanding opportunities for industry professionals. With these additions, Go International will continue to strengthen its position as a strategic platform for companies aiming at export and global growth.
A heartfelt thanks to all our partners and clients who contributed to making this an extraordinary year. The year 2025 promises to be full of new challenges and opportunities, and we are ready to embrace them together with you.
