This fair, which takes place twice a year, is the biggest world event on illumination, electro technical engineering, domestic automatism and construction industry software. The 2014 edition had 2,458 exhibitors distributed over 245.000 fair square meters and received 211,500 visitors from 161 countries.
This event had the participation of representatives from ITELMATIS, ROLEAR, ÂMAGO e JOÃO PEDRO SILVESTRE, LDA., who had the opportunity to make new contacts and partnerships and to learn about the new developments on illumination and construction technologies.
According to Jorge Luz, ITELMATIS representative, “The visit to this fair and the promoted b2b meetings allowed Itelmatis to make new contacts with companies with great potential to establish international partnerships as well as to have the opportunity to compare the technology developed by Itelmatis with the ones present at the event.”
