The International Federation of Exhibition and Event Services (IFES) will present the first-ever “IFES Global Village” at EuroShop, the leading trade show for shop-fitting and exhibition design, March 5-9, in Dusseldorf, Germany. The IFES Global Village, (Hall 4, Stand F36) will consist of eighteen member companies and together with the IFES Association Management team, will meet with partners, members and attendees from around the globe.

“Because IFES represents a global collaboration network, hospitality and cordiality have always been very important to IFES,” notes Voicu Sferdianu, President of IFES. “The Global Village will feature catering for the entire duration of the EuroShop exhibition. This is meant to encourage visitors to relax; and to return.”

In addition to being a hub for international networking, the Global Village will also feature a marketplace of innovation. “It’s a prototype booth,” remarks Sferdianu, “Many of the materials used to in the construction of this stand have never been used like this in Germany.” The Global Village will include carbon fiber-coated ceramic surfaces, a semi-transparent LED surface screen, and visitor-tracking technology, allowing us to compile information on activity in the booth.”

Besides the Global Village, IFES is also the Official Content Partner of the Expo + Event Forum, a free lecture series on news, trends, innovations, best practices and sustainibility, running concurrently with EuroShop exhibition hours, in Hall 4.
