The words of Giovanni Vitaloni, President of DaTE
“We hope the 2020 edition of DaTE will be the first of many opportunities to relaunch our industry which, although experiencing difficulties, has shown resilience and strength in adversity. Today, more than ever, we need to rediscover the tangible values and efficacy of human relations in a ‘real’ setting.
This is why we decided to go forward with the show, the first European event catering to our industry. It is a crucial opportunity to lay the groundwork for things to come, a trial run and a positive sign for all of our stakeholders. Businesses understood the importance of being on board and responded with keen interest.
And, starting today, we await the response of Italian visitors anxious to contribute to re-starting our industry. Stronger, together: the time has come for all of us to refresh the page and re-imagine ourselves, to start growing again, inspiring each other.
Each and every member of the supply chain is valuable. We look forward to seeing you come out in force, ensuring you an entirely safe show”.
