Participants will have the opportunity to network, exchange ideas, information and experience the latest industry trends both physically and digitally through online platforms. To ensure a smooth return to China after a long time for many, the organizer has put in place the “Welcome back to Shanghai” campaign which includes a set of hospitality services such as assistance to apply for the Chinese visa, hotel & restaurants discounts, entertainment and sightseeing activities and much more. Visitors can also combine the business trip to Domotex asia with a summer holiday trip to some of Southeast Asia’s most attractive destinations, benefiting from preferred packages that the organizer has established with various travel agencies.

The show will also host several buyers’ delegations from all the different flooring segments. The selected buyers will enjoy free accommodation, free shuttle service from the hotel to the fairground, matchmaking opportunities with selected exhibitors that fulfill their outsourcing requirements, free access to all onsite events and seminars, access to VIP lounge and many more.

This year Domotex asia is expected to further strengthen its positioning as the largest industry’s international gathering in Asia Pacific and a not-to-be-missed event for re-discovering untapped opportunities in the region.
