As CPHI Barcelona is a trade event, no one under 18 years will be allowed to enter the exhibition.
While the number of visitors is one of the event industry’s metrics to measure the success of a trade show, we always believe that quality should take precedence over quantity. Therefore, should we ever consider taking such a step, the number of visitors will not alone be a measure or a criteria on which to base such a decision. That is why we will focus on the ROI of more than one or two criteria. And this will be based on timely market surveys, detailed analysis and projections.
We will follow all local government rules that are in place at the time of the event including hall and venue density.
As an exhibitor, in order to register your team and stand personnel please log in the Exhibitor Manual. The exhibitor manual will go live early April.
