Federation’s ispo winter wonderland
The Federation of Sports and Play Associations (FSPA) is taking a British group to the ISPO Winter show, due to be held on 4th -7th February 2007. The FSPA is experienced in coordinating British groups and has been doing so since the early nineties. UK Trade and Investment has appointed the FSPA as the ‘Accredited Trade Association’ for ISPO Winter 2007, meaning companies can apply for grants through the Federation.
Ispo winter is the largest European sporting goods trade fair and is seen as the springboard into Europe and beyond. Last year the show had over 60,000 trade visitors, 60% of which were from outside Germany, reflecting the international status of the show.
By exhibiting with the British group, exhibitors can benefit from a much greater presence at the show. Furthermore, the Federation takes the hassle out of exhibiting, by booking space, arranging stand construction, supplying basic furniture and by supporting exhibitors before, during and after the exhibition.
Companies may be eligible to receive an export grant of £1800 towards their exhibiting costs by applying through the FSPA; these grants are also available to independent exhibitors.
In 2006 the grant qualification rules changed, full details of the eligibility criteria can be found in the exhibitor prospectus which is available to download from, www.sportsandplay.com
