KEY FEATURES AT IFFS
IFFS 2017 REDEFINES SHOW EXPERIENCE THROUGH INNOVATION IFFS 2017 redefined the show experience for its participants by presenting quality content in novel ways. An exceptional show experience from a total of 428 first-rate exhibiting companies from 35 countries. For the first time ever, IFFS partners Dimension 5 Technologies (D5T), a Singapore-based start-up, presented Virtual Reality (VR) showrooms featuring furniture pieces from a select group of exhibitors. The move to digitise part of the fair is in line with changing trade show modes, as well as the furniture industry’s evolving retail methods. Increasingly, businesses are seeking to integrate digital technologies to various aspects of their operations, and IFFS echoed the shift away from conventional ways of product presentation.

VISITORS
“I’ve always liked IFFS for the quality visitors and strong brands it attracts, and I think the organisers should definitely continue to focus on that area of strength. People worry about the size of a fair, but I believe a compact show with solid content is far better than a large one with little direction.” — Justin Wheatcroft fromSquare Roots Ltd, exhibitor from Vietnam
