DMA and Victam EMEA exhibition happening on May 27-29 in Turkey

Victam Corporation and Parantez Group have announced that the IDMA and Victam EMEA exhibition and conference will be held on May 27-29 this year at the Istanbul Expo Center in Turkey.

"The decision to proceed was based on several factors, primarily the relative stability and positive forecasts of the COVID-19 situation in Turkey," said Sebas van den Ende, general manager of VICTAM Corporation. "Vaccination programmes currently underway in several countries across the globe are expected to bring some global relief in the second quarter of this year. As such, the Turkish government has allowed business events to proceed biding all measures are taken."

According to van den Ende, many Turkish companies have confirmed their participation in the event, which has sold over 5,000 square meters of space, surpassing its pre-pandemic expectation.

"In light of the positive market reception and with the event three months away, we have created an alternative exhibition format for international companies keen on being present, yet unable to commit to travelling," van den Ende said.

"We are offering a hybrid on-line/off-line presence which allows companies to exhibit with a fully-branded and equipped stand including a local bi-lingual host to welcome and connect visitors to the exhibiting team at the office via live-stream.

"We are confident that this hybrid participation format will enable international exhibitors to tap into this market potential with the brand presence and personal contact with targeted industry contacts (via live-stream) that one is accustomed to at events, whilst not bearing risk. Exhibitors will be 100% refunded should the event not be able to take place at this date."

The IDMA and Victam EMEA event is strongly supported by associations from Turkey and many other countries in the Middle East and North Africa, van den Ende said.
