Opti 2021 // Safe Business Platform

From September 1st on, trade fairs may take place again in Baden-Wuerttemberg. The upcoming opti, which will be held in Stuttgart from 8th to 10th of January 2021, will then be the first ophthalmic optics trade show within a year, where the industry can meet again.

To ensure a safe and reliable business platform, the opti trade show team has drawn up a hygiene concept in cooperation with the venue owner and the State of Baden-Wuerttemberg.

The first trade fair of the year, the first trade fair within a year: In January 2021, opti – the international trade show for optics & design, will provide the industry with a much-needed momentum after the economic drought caused by the pandemic.

In order to ensure the necessary hygiene measures for a safe get-together, the opti organisers are in close contact with Stuttgart Messe and the responsible authorities in the State of Baden-Wuerttemberg, so that the specifications and recommendations that are required for the safe organisation of trade fairs can be implemented when planning opti 2021.

The safety, health and well-being of all exhibitors, visitors, media representatives, partners and employees are first priority and form the base for a successful participation of the trade fair.

The hygiene concept of opti 2021, which derives from the current requirements of the “Actions against the spread of the corona virus of the State of Baden-Württemberg”, valid from 1st of July, 2020, and the “Ordinance of the Ministry of Economics and the Ministry of Social Affairs for the containment of transmission of the corona virus (SARS-CoV-2) at trade fairs, exhibitions and congresses”, serves as a reliable guideline for overall planning security.

 

Jörn Holtmeier, Managing Director of the Association of the German Trade Fair Industry (AUMA) broadens the perspective and confirms the measures in addition:

Recently, the German trade fair organisers have developed comprehensive hygiene and distance concepts in coordination with the health authorities. They guarantee a very high level of health protection for all persons participating in trade fairs in Germany in the upcoming months. Under similar conditions, several trade fairs of German organisers have already been successfully held in China.

JÖRN HOLTMEIER,

A confirmation of the fact, that opti can be successfully held and carried out from 8th to 10th of January 2021 in Stuttgart by GHM for the industry.

If the course of infection allows it, policies may be eased and adjusted.
