FAIR BOLZANO PULSES FOR THE MARKET
FAIR BOLZANO IN THE HEART OF THE ALPS In the middle of the Alps lies the Bolzano/Bozen Exhibition Center, the most important platform for contacts between businesses in German-speaking areas and Italy. Bolzano has a long tradition as a commercial center. The annual markets that can be traced back as far as 1202 were given the right to have their own autonomous commercial and mercantile court in 1635. With transport and traffic increasing over the Brenner Pass, Bolzano’s significance as a site for the exchange of goods and services also continues to grow. The capital of South Tyrol has an area of penetration of some 4 million inhabitants from the economically vibrant north of Italy and the Alpine countries of Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. One of the densest networks of wholesale operations for import and export in all of Europe is located in Alto Adige/South Tyrol.
THE BOLZANO/BOZEN EXHIBITION CENTER IS BUILDING ON OVER SIXTY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE. ITS GOAL IS TO REPRESENT THE MARKETS OF TODAY AND TO BE A BAROMETER FOR TOMORROW’S INTERNATIONAL TRENDS. IT ACTS BOTH LOCALLY AND GLOBALLY.
