International Desk: The three-days VIV MEA 2021 exhibition which started on November 23 in Abu Dhabi ended today. After a second edition that already exceeded expectations, this international event came back for the 3rd time with an enriched conference program covering the latest trends in dairy, fish, poultry, eggs, cattle, calves, goat, and camels. Strongly driven by business, VIV MEA has offered more products and trade opportunities to the MENA region professionals.
The three-day event at Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC), which hosted about 8,000 visitors from all over the world and around 500 exhibitors from 51 countries, witnessed the excitement of getting together again and doing business face to face.
MOMENTOUS OPENING FOR FEED TO FOOD BUSINESS
The event dedicated to animal protein professionals welcomed the Interim Director General Agro of the Dutch Government for an exhibition visit during the morning of the very first day. In addition, the pre-registrations both for the exhibition and the content-driven conference sessions were remarkable. Many of the seminars were marked ‘full’ with no seats left. “We approach the exhibition with great confidence and are sure that good business will result from this LIVE event,” said Renate Wiendels, Senior Project Manager, VIV worldwide.
Visitors can still register during the show time for their preferred conferences based on the availability. Sustainable and profitable livestock farming, advancement in poultry science, topical issues of highly dangerous animal disease diagnosis and prevention – are some of the many topics of the conference sessions.
EXHIBITORS FROM 51 COUNTRIES
VIV MEA 2021 brought full value for the Middle East & Africa with exhibitors presenting their solutions, vision and products from 51 countries. Top exhibiting countries included China, France, the Netherlands, the USA, Italy, India, Germany, Turkey and South Korea. Even the sectors occupying majority of the stands reflect the current world situation – Animal Health took a big portion of the exhibition space followed by Farm Production, Feed, Processing & Food Engineering, Breeding & Hatching and many more.
Many prominent names from the Abu Dhabi Agriculture & Food Safety Authority (ADAFSA) and Emirates Veterinary Association (EVA) were part of the 300 VIV Industry Leaders who shared their insightful ideas on a wide range of topics during seminars and conferences.
BOTH ONSITE AND ONLINE
For the year 2021, VIV MEA covered 17,500 square meters in Halls 7, 8, 9 and 10 at ADNEC. The show layout was organized by sectors, where Halls 7 and 8 were majorly covered by farm production and feed ingredients & additives. Halls 9 and 10 on the other hand demonstrated a bigger part of animal health products, breeding & hatching, feed and crop-tech/feed-tech sectors.
Alongside the VIV MEA event, the Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Security Week (ADAFSW) also took place at ADNEC during the same days.
