Expo Venice Spa: a new protagonist in the fairs organization.

Expo Venice spa was born with the aim of promoting Venice’s historic vocation as a place for cultural and commercial interchange, an international showcase of products and services.

For this scope, it has activated a palimpsest of fair and exposition events which utilize and evaluate different locations of the city.

Expo Venice proposes itself not as a “space manager”, but as an organizer of fair events, making Venice a “polycentric” exposition area: the Maritime Station, Giudecca, the Arsenal, Lido, Parco di San Giuliano, Vega Parco Scientifico-tecnologico, etc.

Expo Venice’s activities intend to develop a market of international worth on Venice’s own stage, contributing to the economic development of the city. For this scope, it creates new synergies with businesses and institutions, coordinating its own activities with entities and public institutions, private associations and firms, and not only in local territory.

Expo Venice has been recognized by the associates of Aefi: (Association of Italian Expositions and Fairs) the organization which represents the Italian fair system.

 

Expo Venice is presided by Piergiacomo Ferrari, former Managing Director of Milan Fair. The societies collaborating with Consormare spa include VEGA Parco Scientifico-Tecnologico , in which take part the ENI group, the Municipality of Venice, the Province of Venice, the Region of Veneto, SCP, a consortium the scope of which is to support the management of Venice’s great events, Oltrex, a society which has accompanied the growth of Venice’s Boat Show, APV Investimenti, the operational arm of the Port Authority, and Confindustria Venezia.
