Posidonia lives its myth
16-06-10Show?s success boosts confidence in shipping
Even before the dismantling process of Posidonia 2010 exhibitors? stands and pavilions begins, the organisers of the world?s biggest sea transportation event were inundated with requests for more floor space from Greek and international maritime companies eager to participate in the 23rd edition of the landmark seafaring fair scheduled for June 2012.
The global appeal of Posidonia 2010 is reflected in a pool of impressive numbers and important stakeholders who were among the event?s 18,000 visitors from 87 nations who attended the prestigious forum. A record of 1,859 exhibitors participated in Posidonia 2010 across an area of 31,000 square metres which also saw a record of 21 national pavilions.
The Greek maritime community was also excited about the glitter and glamour of this year?s Posidonia which bucked the trend of Greece?s economic woes by putting together a spectacular show that sets new benchmarks in shipping networking affairs. George Gabriel, Deputy Chairman of Piraeus-based Golden Union described Posidonia as a networking institution designed to create ties between executives of the global maritime community. ?Posidonia is the world?s most important shipping event providing a platform to the best-of-breed maritime companies to network, discuss and conduct business while helping Greece to showcase its potential and promote its image and tourism attractions,? he said.
