Three days to position yourself at the heart of Smart City development
This year, we will take you there in person, to the heart of the fair, to our Belgian pavilion, where you will have the opportunity to:
- present your products and services to key players in the sector, with the visibility provided by presence in a national pavilion at a reduced cost;
- participate in conferences and workshops;
- become inspired by the latest trends and innovations in the development of smart cities;
- benefit from our logistical support throughout the fair;
- if you wish, receive individual commercial support from our economic and commercial representative in Barcelona.
Take advantage of our Brokerage Event, free coaching during the three days, provided by our Enterprise Europe Network in collaboration with ACCIÓ, and benefit from a programme of pre-scheduled meetings on site and/or online.
Don’t wait too long, we operate on a first-come, first-served basis!
