The participants of the exhibition have the opportunity to research the opinion of consumers, to highlight their level of competitiveness, to get to know new partners and investors, saving time, resources and means. Together with ODIMM, which will fully reimburse the participation of domestic SMEs, we have managed to register 40 exhibitors from different areas of activity, such as: agri-food, textiles, wine, machinery, machinery, machinery and appliances, provision of services, toys and hand-made works, etc.’.

At the event, Iulia Costin, Director-General ODIMM reiterated the importance of the participation of the HMM in fairs and exhibitions.

“Fairs and exhibitions are an integral part of marketing tools and the participation of small and medium-sized enterprises is important to analyse competition and find new development opportunities. ODIMM facilitates the promotion of local business at fairs and exhibitions to increase its visibility on both the local and international market. Thus, economic operators participating in the ‘SMExpo 2021’ virtual exhibition will be able to reimburse 100 % of their participation fee of RON 2000 through the ‘Programme for promoting the participation of economic operators in fairs and exhibitions’, managed by ODIMM’.

In the exhibition room, each SME is represented at a personalised virtual stand.
