It was like jumping into cold water. To organize one of the first trade fairs ever after the lockdown and the first one in its industry field made us face the challenge of having to beat new paths without being able to fall back on the experience.
Together with the exhibitors, we were curious to see how the additional hygiene measures would be taken up and accepted, what effect the pandemic has on the atmosphere in the halls and whether visitors would come at all.
Here is a selection of viewpoints that reached us during and immediately after the exhibition. They are encouraging for the next editions - both in Ulm and in Pordenone, both for the participants and the organizer.

An example
"With the successful and coherent implementation of Coiltech in Pordenone, the QUiCKFairs team set an example of how one can carry out a trade fair professionally even under the extraordinary conditions caused by Covid-19. Participants and customers were able to conduct inspiring contacts and discussions in a safe environment. We look forward to Ulm next year."

Enough of the video conferencing - personal, face-to-face conversations are better
Talk to each other face to face

The advantages of a real world conference
Direct contact with the attendees of the conference
"... At the conference, I spoke about laser technologies and I really liked a conference with real people and in particular, I liked the discussion afterwards. There were many questions to my presentation and I had a good occasion to answer these questions. I was astonished to see many people from industry here, from Italy, from Germany, from whole Europe actually. This is what I liked. If you would ask me, a real conference is much better than any internet conference. If possible, of course."
A.W. - Fraunhofer IWS
Exchange among technicians and other professionals
