More than 20 countries were present at the show for the first time, such as
Christmas Island, Mariana Islands, Samoa; from the Indian Ocean, visitors fr m
Seychelles, Nepal, and Sub Saharan Africa: Rwanda, Zambia and Zimb we.
HostMilano is garnering more interest by international institutions too. The show
attracted Business Beyond Borders, an international project promoted by the
European Commission, which involves 240 companies from 53 count ies in ov r
200 meetings, whereas Grupo Consular de América Latina y el Caribe N.I.
participated for the very first time, grouping together consular representations from
Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Ecuador, El Salvador, Mexico,
Panama, Peru, Dominican Republic, Uruguay and Venezuela.
Sergio Morales, general secretary of the Gruppo Consolare Americana Latina e
Caraibi N.I. commented: “Our organisation constitutes an absolute novelty, so this
is first time we’re taking part in Host. There’s been a real boom in guests and
people interested not only in our novelty factor on the world market, but also in the
activities and products that each of our countries can offer.
“We were really very pleased with the reception we had, the organisation of the fair
and above all the real business opportunities that we found and that we’ll certainly
continue to develop after Host.”
Business Beyond Borders participant Vesselin from Bulgaria added: “I’m
enthusiastic about Host and the opportunity I’ve had to take part in the European
BBB programme, during which I was able to discuss numerous opportunities for
collaboration and cooperation on behalf of the companies I represent. I had nearly
20 meetings, finding many partners with good investment opportunities in Bulgaria,
and that’s fantastic for me.”
This edition also obtained Commercial Service certification, which is issued by the
US Department of Commerce exclusively to a small number of international fairs
that stand out for their ability to facilitate business.
Elsewhere, India Shivprasad, whose company is active in the opening of new
McDonald’s restaurants, detailed: “I’ve known Host for several years and I know
