EXTRA: THE “OPEN FACTORIES” INITIATIVE
One part of the event is the space dedicated to Happy Business To You: with exhibition halls organized in a highly innovative layout, it constitutes the “official” area where companies and buyers can get to know each other and discuss business. The other part of the event is an actual Open House, where factories of the exhibitors are transformed into open spaces for the length of the trade fair, where exhibition guests can visit and discover where and how the real “Made In Italy” is born.
