Sustainability is becoming increasingly important in all areas of activity.

EuroShop and its exhibitors are aware of the importance of this topic and offer numerous suggestions in many areas:
  • Shopfitting and exhibition stand construction
  • Lighting
  • Visual Merchandising
  • retail technology
  • Refrigeration
  • Energy Management
  • Food Service Equipment
  • and many more

How can event appearances be made more sustainable?

Sustainability is one of the megatrends in our world. Naturally, sustainable requirements and solutions also came up in many topics at EuroShop 2023. In videos and highlight tours, exhibitors gave tips on how to make events, work processes or the business model more sustainable.

To this end, the presentations on the stages of EuroShop 2023 are also worth watching. In our on-demand offer you can watch the talks of the Store Design Stage, the Connected Retail Stage, the Retail Technology Stage and the Expo + Event Stage online.
