Global Exhibitions Day

Global Exhibitions Day (GED) is held annually on the first Wednesday of June. The sixth annual Global Exhibitions Day will take place on 2 June 2021.

Global Exhibitions Day (GED) recognises the important role that trade exhibitions play in driving economies throughout the world. The COVID-19 pandemic has had significantly detrimental, and potentially lasting, effects on the global economy, across nearly all business sectors and regions. Exhibitions have traditionally played a role in bolstering and growing economic sectors, but this year they will play a new role – rebuilding and recovering communities.

The key message for #GED2021 - Exhibitions are Key to Rebuilding Economies.

To make the biggest possible impact, Global Exhibitions Day this year will focus on just one message: Exhibitions are key to rebuilding economies. We will concentrate on the idea of connecting, reconnecting, starting and rebuilding communities and economies. We want to promote the message that face-to-face exhibitions are the fastest way to reconnect with your marketplace, and that the connections made at exhibitions will lead to the renewal of our economy.

Metal-Expo Co., Ltd. as an exhibition organizer and a full member of UFI and RUEF congratulates all exhibition organizers on their professional holiday and wishes all success and prosperity.
