FIEXPO Latin America was announced as an "ICCA supported trade show" by ICCA CEO Martin Sirk and ICCA President Arnaldo Nardone at the last day of the show.
Martin Sirk commented: "Following the 7th edition of FIEXPO, I’m delighted to announce that the show has been granted ’ICCA supported’ status. This is given to strong regional shows that are organised by ICCA member companies in a highly professional manner, that attract extensive support from ICCA members in the region, that help ICCA to organise our own educational and networking activities alongside the show, and where many of the participating buyers are genuinely interested in regional rather than domestic events. FIEXPO meets all these criteria, and has also proved to be an important advocacy platform for our industry, organising the first Latin American Politicians’ Forum, which attracted ministerial level participation from many countries in the region, as well as senior city officials. We look forward to building a productive long-term relationship with FIEXPO that will help ICCA members in Latin America win more business."
FIEXPO Latin America is an International Meetings Market Show aimed at promoting this industry’s infrastructure and services in South and Central America, the Caribbean and Mexico. The 2014 edition involved 15 Latin American Countries, more than 100 exhibitors, 126 hosted buyers and 2,369 pre-scheduled appointments.
