Webinars score at virtual trade fair

The 15th edition of the Aquarama Trade Fair is now over. As you know, corona restrictions have forced the choice of a virtual fair combined with some fascinating webinars. The webinars were a great success. Some 300 people followed the live sessions of our partners watercircle.be, Vlario and Interreg WOW!. Interesting questions were asked of the speakers and these were immediately addressed as much as possible. As an organiser however, it’s with mixed feelings that we’re concluding this. A number of technical problems threw a spanner in the works. We also found that visiting a stand at a virtual fair is not yet taken for granted by our target group. It’s all still new and yet, given the situation, it’s the only way out. For us this is proof that the Aquarama fair in its original form is an indispensable networking moment and that the virtual copy is in no way able to replace the real fair. That’s why we’re hoping to welcome you all, exhibitors and visitors, back "live" next year. The Aquarama Trade Fair will take place next year in Leuven Brabanthal as usual, on September 30th.
