AEFI – Associazione Esposizioni e Fiere Italiane ( Italian Exhibition and Trade Fair Association)
represents the interests of the national trade fair industry: 36 Associated Exhibition Authorities hosting more than 1,000 events per year. On behalf of these associates, AEFI is taking action towards the Parliament and the Government so that the Italian trade fair industry can better face the international competition. Similar action is being taken at a Regional level, so that the transformation process currently underway may continue.
AEFI initiatives to increase the international nature of Italy’s trade fairs: collaboration with the Ministero degli Esteri, (Ministry of Foreign Affairs) the Ministero delle Attività Produttive (Ministry of Productive Activities) and ICE (the Italian Institute for Foreign Trade); availability for foreign exhibitors and visitors; rationalisation of programs of initiatives for the main foreign markets.
AEFI stimulates exchanges with similar associations at an international level: it represents Italy’s trade fairs at the International Fairs Union (Union des Foires Internationales, UFI).
AEFI informs both exhibitors and visitors about the dates, venues and types of events to be held in Italy: Every year, the Association and the Ministero delle Attività Produttive (Ministry of Productive Activities) publish the official calendar and the statistical data of Italian trade fairs that have international recognition. These publications create a world-wide promotion tool.
