Another of the fairs that has decided to modify its calendar due to the health crisis is Sigep. It will keep its next edition in 2021, but announces a change in dates and format. It will be a special and expanded edition, called Sigep EXP, scheduled to last an entire week with considerable physical attendance and a strategic digital offering. It will be possible to experience it in person on March 15, 16 and 17 at the Rimini Exhibition Center (Italy), with a time slot designed to favor the global situation, and on March 18 and 19 in a digital version, which will greatly facilitate the meeting between companies and international buyers.

Sigep EXP will focus on business and meetings. Therefore, exhibitors will receive essential accessories, defined modules, and packages with digital services. The attending professional public will be able to strategically organize their experience by selecting and saving according to specific interests, companies, and events, as well as taking advantage of a new type of agenda to set appointments, attend conferences, and expand their networking activities. Finally, the digital visitor will have high-performance instruments to activate chats and video chats, participate remotely in all the events available on the calendar, and set virtual meetings.

This year the design of the exhibition area will include five event areas and seven special ones, some of which will be authentic novelties such as the Innovation Gallery, which will house a selection of the latest products, technologies, and services for the world outside the home, and a Meeting Zone with lounge areas specifically equipped to hold business meetings.
