The sight of so many companies doing business, learning and networking made us really proud.This year’s record-breaking figures reflect the determination of the industry to innovate and overcome challenges, and we’re delighted to have played a part in that.”

Visitors found that the event’s growth created even more opportunities for them to network and do business.

Inga Freimane, visiting from Aptiekas Produkcija, said “The whole exhibition was bigger than before, and we enjoyed it even more. The atmosphere was great, and we were able to use the event from both sides – to meet customers and suppliers at the same time. I made some very good contacts. We’ll definitely be back next year.”
