The preparations of Victam International and Grapas Europe 2022, which will take place in Utrecht from May 31 – June 2, are in full swing and so far the results are very satisfying and ahead of schedule. Despite the Covid situation there is a lot of confidence and positivism among the exhibitors.
That the market is ready to meet again at events, is shown in how smoothly the conference programme comes together. Victam has signed up with strong conference partners who altogether have a programme that covers all of the segments of the industry.
These two factors, excited exhibitors and a strong conference programme, together with the co-location of VIV Europe makes us very positive about attracting many qualified visitors to the event in 2022.
