International companies at the exhibition will be showcasing their latest products, materials and design trends for the contracting sector. Visitors will find a rich array of top quality floor coverings and designer products for contract furnishing projects. It is also an ideal opportunity to make promising new business contacts. Indeed, much has been done to encourage the dialogue between exhibitors and visitors, and numerous activities will be implemented to this end.

Product showcase
Every exhibitor will have access to a so-called Product Showcase, where he can present new products which are of relevance from an architectural/interior design standpoint. Visitors will then be able to vote for the product which he or she thinks is the best.

Speed workshops
Speed Workshops will provide an opportunity for exhibitors to receive direct feedback from the visitors about their company and its products. Several times during the day, representatives of the exhibiting companies will be brought together with architects and interior designers to assess and discuss the relevance of their products to the concrete needs of architects. The speed workshops will take place at the stands.

Guided tours for architects
In 2010 the exhibition will be structured according to the following keynote themes: Office, Hotel, Shop and Education / Training / Healthcare. This will help visitors to find what interests them most among the wealth of exhibits. Furthermore, architects and interior designers will benefit from the introduction of regular guided tours for architects dedicated to these keynote themes.

contractworld is sponsored by leading international professional associations representing architects and interior designers. These organizations will also be represented at the event.
