The first Vitafoods Europe took place in 1997 – there were 100 exhibitors, and just over 1000 attendees. At this year’s event (9 – 11 May at Palexpo, Geneva) we’re expecting over 1000 exhibitors and over 18,500 visitors, says Chris Lee
Managing Director, Global Health and Nutrition Network, Europe – Informa Exhibitions.
The stature of Vitafoods Europe has grown too. It is now firmly established as the place to be for anyone who wants to do business, network, and source new products and ingredients in the global nutraceutical industry.
There are also opportunities to learn. Visitors are able to discover a wealth of topical compelling content, reflecting the diversity, dynamism and commitment to innovation of the global nutraceutical industry.
If you’re among the 69% of our visitors interested in ingredients and raw materials, I’m confident you’ll find what you’re looking for. Ninety new ingredients will be exhibited and demonstrated in the New Ingredients Zone. A trip to the International Pavilions will allow you to sample the latest new innovations from across the world.
Running alongside the trade show is the Vitafoods Education Programme. Previously known as the Vitafoods Conference, it will deliver high-value content focused on delegates’ individual needs. If you haven’t already booked your place, you’re strongly advised to do so before 17 March so you can secure an early bird rate.
For delegates seeking high-level technical knowledge, the Programme includes seven R&D Forums which will showcase the latest in applied nutrition science. Meanwhile the Business Workshops will present best practice for business growth, market access and streamlined supply chains.
So Vitafoods Europe 2017 will offer a wealth of cutting-edge, high quality content, with something to meet everyone’s business needs. Whatever you’re looking for, I’m confident you’ll find it at Vitafoods Europe. I look forward to seeing you there!
