DIVING TALKS; (PROBABLY) THE MOST IMPORTANT DIVING EVENT IN 2021
- The Venue.
DIVING talks is the opportunity to spend three fantastic days at one of the most extraordinary places in Portugal; the Tróia Peninsula.
“At the present moment in time, we cannot reliably gauge whether a trade fair can be implemented in January 2021. This is due to current infection rates, ongoing travel restrictions and existing legal provisions which do not permit trade fairs to be held currently. In consultation with our boot advisory board and the associations we have selected the new dates in April with caution," Messe Düsseldorf’s CEO Wolfram Diener writes in a press release.
When we tell a story, we relate to other people, and we seek to connect and bond with our audience. In this presentation, X-Ray Mag Publisher and Editor-in-Chief Peter Symes will talk about stories for magazine articles in particular and what sets them apart from books, newspapers or websites. Find out how to submit a dive article text and image files and what X-Ray Mag looks for in a dive story.
Now housed in a new space on Level 4 of the exhibition center, AIDE has a new setup and ambience over the five-day event, including a dive education program with presentations and forums on scientific diving, ocean rescue, dive medicine and women in underwater photography. With over 60,000 divers and boaters visiting the boat show every year, exhibitors enjoy extensive exposure, with ample opportunities to interact with visitors, making sales and reaching new audiences.
Over the past 15 years, the show has welcomed around 180,000 visitors, with an average of 10,000 visitors each year, of which 90% were divers. Attending industry professionals last year included dive operators, manufacturers, distributors, entrepreneurs and tourism boards, many of whom made use of a new B2B networking platform MIDE created just for them.
