2020 was a challenging year for the exhibition industry. In rapidly changing markets, VNU Asia Pacific is continuously investing in brands and capabilities while applying key lessons learnt to 2021. The company is enhancing its digital footprint using digital platforms alongside physical shows in order to enhance exhibitor’s ROI and reach specific target audiences in a world of ongoing travel limitations. Apart from that, VNU Asia Pacific is committed to keep on launching shows across Southeast Asia in the current year.

2020 Investments in Company Positioning & Brand Identity
In February 2020, VNU Asia Pacific moved its office into a new premium space located in the heart of Bangkok at The PARQ – a newly built state-of-the-art real estate project developed by VNU’s Thai shareholder TCC Group. The new ultra-modern office is a key asset for the company’s future growth and regional positioning.

During the first half of 2020, VNU also launched its new Corporate Identity and a powerful red logo, making the company brand stronger and more cohesive with the headquarters in Utrecht, Shanghai and Bangkok. At projects level, VIV worldwide also refreshed its overall brand with a compelling new style which now also incorporates the VNU Asia Pacific ILDEX Exhibitions within the global VIV portfolio.

Additionally, looking at its Corporate Social Responsibility realm, VNU Asia Pacific started a program in 2020 to support Thai children in needs – giving them access to education, thus making way for a better future.

New Shows & Key Partnerships
Regardless of economic fluctuation and market uncertainty during the past year, VNU Asia Pacific introduced five new collaborations in 2020 eyeing global partnerships to bring soon engaging trade shows right across the Asia region.

Free From Food Asia with EBC Expo – trade show organizer specialized in healthy food & alternative protein – arrives in Bangkok in 2021 reflecting an increasing importance of food consumption in Asia. Focused on free from, organic, vegan, functional and healthy food solutions, the show covers both manufacturing and retail.            

Meat Pro Asia, also debuting this year in Thailand, covers the processing and packaging for egg, poultry, meat, seafood & food products and is the result of a strategic partnership between two top players in this sector: the organizer of IFFA (Messe Frankfurt New Era Business Media Ltd.) and the organizer of VIV Asia (VNU Group).

Aquatica Asia, organized with PT Global Permata Perkasa in Indonesia, focuses on aquaculture industry and aims to improve fisheries production. Although the aquaculture profile is already presented in the livestock event ILDEX Indonesia, VNU recognizes the potential of this segment with a designated event.

Bio Asia Pacific with TCELS (Thailand Center of Excellence for Life Sciences). Where Bio Asia Pacific is a new platform for Biotechnology, Life Sciences and Smart Health in Asia Pacific, Thailand LAB INTERNATIONAL is its counterpart for the Laboratory Industry. Both shows will provide an Integrated Innovative Platform from Laboratory to Life Sciences for the SEA region.

BYOND MOBILE organized with EJ Krause will be the B2B meeting place for the 5G ecosystem to drive the super-connected economy in the heart of Asia. The conference will bring together business leaders from Agriculture, Health, Manufacturing and Mobility with experts from the Internet, Mobile Communications and IT sectors. The dedicated 5G exhibition will feature leading blue-chip companies as well as promising start-ups drawn from the whole technology stack. Focused areas include those from mobile network and cloud solutions, cyber-security and robotics, as well as the latest in AR/VR, machine learning and AI.

      

Virtual, Live & Hybrid – VNU Asia Pacific enhancing its Digital Footprint
Even during these difficult times, VNU Asia Pacific did not stop engaging with the industry and fulfilling its need to connect. In 2020 the company launched a series of virtual platforms in tandem with its live events aiming to create a goal-oriented hybrid experience.

Pet Fair SEA Pre-Connect was the first virtual event launched by VNU Asia Pacific, which took place October 2020 and offered a one-day platform for global brands and innovative products to connect with Asian buyers ahead of the live event scheduled in 2021. With 152 global companies, 430 contacts and 588 total successful meetings in a span of 12 hours – this virtual event made a great success. The same initiative was made for agritech portfolio, a newly-launched AGRITECHNICA ASIA & HORTI ASIA “digital talks” started off successfully and included experts from world’s leading organizations such as the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) and the World Vegetable Center. With registered attendees from 30 countries updating themselves about solutions for efficient crop production in Asia as well as network directly with 572 agricultural experts who already logged in and made meetings on the virtual platform “digital connect’.

During the same month, October 2020, Thailand LAB INTERNATIONAL along with Bio Asia Pacific organized the first Hybrid Exhibition and witnessed a huge number of attendees from the industry. The show concluded with 109 exhibiting companies and 8,067 trade visitors at the live event at BITEC Exhibition Center. 65% of total trade visitors were physical visitors while 35% were virtual. There were 47 physical conferences and 47 purely virtual conferences, plus 38 hybrid conferences (physical with live streamed content at Facebook and YouTube LIVE).

The ILDEX Exhibitions closed the year with another digital concept called I-Match & Pitching, a two-day online event for business networking held in November 2020. During the 2-day program, 26 international suppliers from 8 countries introduced their latest products and services via online pitch presentations. With the participation from selected VIP guests around Asia Pacific region, over 150 business matchings were successfully concluded.

In addition to the exhibition activities, the VNU Professional Conference Organizer (PCO) Department organized 31 webinars for multiple partners across government and private sectors including the Prince Mahidol Award Conference, the Thai Exhibition Association, the Federation of Asian Veterinary Associations and the Royal Thai Embassy in Berlin, Germany.

Flagship and leading international events secured for Q3/Q4 next year

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, travel restrictions, and ongoing worldwide uncertainty, VNU Group modifies its show calendar to secure successful inter-regional exhibitions during the second half of 2021.

The schedule modifications will result in the postponement of six leading events in the agribusiness sectors, which are organized by VNU Asia Pacific, VNU Europe, and partners. The events were originally planned to take place in the upcoming months in Southeast Asia.

“Our exhibitions mobilize and connect cross-regional markets. High-quality visitors from several economies is the client expectation for these shows. This is especially true with VIV Asia, our flagship event for the Feed to Food portfolio and the leading platform of its kind throughout the entire Asia-Pacific region” said Heiko M. Stutzinger, Managing Director of VNU Asia Pacific and Director VIV worldwide/VNU Europe.

“After consultation with our esteemed co-organizing partners, exhibitors, and respective venues, we have decided to take action in advance and postpone VIV Asia, Meat Pro Asia, Free From Food Asia, ILDEX Vietnam, ILDEX Indonesia and Aquatica Asia until the second half of 2021” announced Stutzinger.

VIV Asia and co-located events postponed until September 2021

VIV Asia and the newly co-located events, Meat Pro Asia and Free from Food Asia, were originally planned for March and are now scheduled to take place on September 22-24, 2021 at IMPACT, Bangkok, Thailand.

“Global travel restrictions have remained and Thailand continues to enforce a mandatory 14-day quarantine for all visitors entering the country. Our local office in Bangkok is monitoring the cautious measures that the Thai government is taking due to concern of a second COVID-19 wave, as witnessed in other countries” stated Panadda Kongma, Director of VNU Asia Pacific.

“VIV Asia alone attracts more than 50,000 professionals with 70% of participants visiting from outside of Thailand. Vaccines seem to be stagnant in the trail stage throughout multiple countries and are not likely to be broadly distributed until early 2021, thus limiting the ability for many companies to plan for business trips. As organizers, we believe that a high-quality show with an expected number of international buyers can come to fruition by postponing the shows until September 2021” explains Zhenja Antochin, Senior Project Manager of VNU Europe.

VIV Asia 2021 is scheduled to take place at the same exhibition halls (Challenger 1, 2, and 3) as previously planned for March. Additionally, Meat Pro Asia is confirmed to take place at Challenger 1 and Free from Food Asia at Hall 4.

ILDEX Vietnam postponed until July 2021 | ILDEX Indonesia and co-located event postponed until november 2021 

To facilitate good attendance for the Asian agri-business shows planned in 2021, VNU Asia Pacific and partners have also decided to reserve new dates for ILDEX Vietnam, ILDEX Indonesia and Aquatica Asia.

ILDEX Vietnam will now take place from July 21-23, 2021 at SECC (Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center), Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Following in Q4, both ILDEX Indonesia and Aquatica Asia shows will take place from November 24-26, 2021 at ICE (Indonesia Convention Exhibition), Jakarta, Indonesia.

Clear directions and smart preparation

The adjusted show calendar allows for adequate preparation for all concerned stakeholders. VNU is determined to deliver high-quality shows without compromising the inter-regional nature of the events.

BANGKOK – JAKARTA – August 13, 2020 – Over the past 10 years, VNU Asia Pacific (VNU AP) has been organizing the International Livestock, Dairy, Meat Processing and Aquaculture Exposition (ILDEX Indonesia) in collaboration with PT Permata Kreasi Media (PKM). As PKM transitions to a new business entity named PT Global Permata Perkasa (GPP), the group is working to develop a pilot project – Aquatica Asia.

Aquatica Asia aims to strengthen the Aquaculture Industry and will launch alongside ILDEX Indonesia. It will take place on odd-numbered years beginning September 15-17, 2021 at the Indonesia Convention Exhibition (ICE) in Jakarta. During even-numbered years Aquatica Asia will co-locate with a local government show.

Business Opportunities for the Aquaculture Sector

Aquatica Asia will be a strategic step towards a dedicated business platform to improve the production of fisheries within the aquaculture industry. In past years, organizers have worked to include the aquaculture segment in ILDEX Indonesia, however, the new event will help to further highlight the industry for the existing show and industry professionals.

“In 2020, Indonesia’s marine affairs and fisheries is one of the three main sectors contributing to the country’s economic development. The efforts done by the Indonesian Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries are the appropriate steps. These efforts include improvements of fisheries production and commodities that have been dominating both exports and local markets such as shrimps, seaweed, catfish, grouper, etc. Another part of the efforts was the initiative of GPP to run Aquatica Asia in 2018 with fishery stakeholders co-locating with Indo Aqua under the support of the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries of the Republic of Indonesia by Directorate General of Aquaculture” stated Panadda Kongma, Director of Agri-business and Operations of VNU Asia Pacific.

 

 

Mr. Ir. Ruri Sarasono, MBA., Managing Director of Global Permata Perkasa“VNU-AP has gathered valuable insights on the entire agribusiness value chain in the region, and the two parties will further develop good relationships with regional key stakeholders”, said by GPP managing Director is Mr. Ir. Ruri Sarasono, MBA.

Full Coverage of the Livestock–Aquaculture Value Chain

To maximize the customer’s return on investment, ILDEX Indonesia and Aquatica Asia will together present a full value chain of animal breeding, animal health, animal housing & farm equipment, industrial feed, grain & raw material processing equipment, feed, feed ingredients/additives, fish processing, seasoning, packaging, handling, refrigeration, laboratory, testing equipment and services, logistics & handling, wastewater treatment and hatching/incubation for livestock and aquaculture businesses.

The events will cover over 10,000 sq.m. of the Indonesia Convention Exhibition (ICE). Since 2018, ILDEX has had key buyers throughout their editions and activities. 200 key buyers, who passed qualifying criteria, were invited from ASEAN countries and will continue the Hosted Buyer Program for ILDEX Indonesia 2021, co-located with Aquatica Asia. Key buyers will focus on Livestock and Aquaculture sectors and come from the exhibitor’s research and referral, who recommends potential key buyers that they meet onsite. ILDEX Team will prepare welcome packages and special privileges for buyers.

ILDEX Indonesia 2019 Success Story

In 2019, ILDEX Indonesia had greater attendance than its past editions, when it was relocated to the new venue at the Indonesian Convention Center (ICE).

In a strategic expansion into the growing food technology sector, Messe Frankfurt New Era Business Media Ltd and VNU Asia Pacific, announce a partnership to jointly organise ‘Meat Pro Asia’, a new trade show dedicated to meat and food processing and catering to the ASEAN region. The show will take place on a biennial basis in co-location with VIV Asia – the no.1 international trade show from Feed to Food in Asia.

The inaugural edition will open its doors on 10–12 March 2021 at IMPACT, Bangkok – Thailand.

 Commenting on the new event, Mr. Wolfgang Marzin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Messe Frankfurt Group, said: “Despite a challenging first half of the year, we continue to see the need to establish new trade fairs in emerging markets around the world. With an increasingly wealthy population of 600 million, the ASEAN region is an exciting prospect, with high potential for growth in sectors such as meat and food processing”.

“This new cooperation in Asia strengthens and completes – especially towards the downstream part of the supply chain – the already leading position of VNU in the Asian animal protein production business” commented Mr. Albert Arp, Group CEO of Royal Jaarbeurs / VNU Group. VNU Asia Pacific has an extensive track record in the Thai market with a rich portfolio of events for the AgriTech, Animal, Food, and other sectors, covering all of the key markets in South East Asia.

“Adding to an international network of events related to food processing technologies, Meat Pro Asia is Messe Frankfurt’s first venture in this sector in South East Asia” noted Mr. Stephan Buurma, Member of the Board of Management, Messe Frankfurt Group and Managing Director of the Asia regional head office. “We therefore see great potential to leverage our experience and sector expertise, including the resources of IFFA in Frankfurt, the world’s leading meat processing trade fair, for the benefit of the industry in South East Asia.”

Combining industry resources
“Working closely with Messe Frankfurt, we aim at attracting the top suppliers and buyers in the processing industry to Meat Pro Asia, establishing this exhibition as a top destination in the ASEAN region for meat processing and packaging equipment” said Mr. Heiko M. Stutzinger, Managing Director of VNU Asia Pacific and Director of VIV worldwide. “VIV Asia has witnessed a consistent growth during the recent editions of the food processing segment. By holding Meat Pro Asia alongside VIV Asia, and leveraging on the experience of Messe Frankfurt in this specific sector, we are going to provide the entire spectrum of food technology to trade buyers. We are confident that this new event will be a great success,” Stutzinger added.

Expressing equally positive sentiments, Mr. Stephan Buurma added: “With its extensive local ties, and sector experience, VNU is the perfect partner for this new venture. Set to become the only trade fair of its kind in the region, Meat Pro Asia will serve as the perfect launching pad to opportunities in the ASEAN market, which is widely recognised as one of the world’s most promising markets for food technology.”

A vibrant market
Expected to grow by 4.7% annually until 2023[1], the market for processed foods in ASEAN has been bolstered by the demands of a rising middle class.

More important contributors to the industry’s growth trajectory are government policies which aim to convert Thailand into one of the world’s top five food

exporters by 2036[2], thereby fostering a favourable trading and regulatory environment for Meat Pro Asia’s participants to benefit from when it opens its doors in March 2021.

Helping channel players from ASEAN and beyond gain access to the high potential market, Meat Pro Asia will focus exclusively on solutions that deliver meat from farm to table. This includes slaughtering, the full processing chain, packaging, labelling, cold chain logistics, quality control, hygiene, IoT and automation, waste water treatment and more. Visitors to the new show will include processing companies, food retailers, importers, exporters, wholesalers, manufacturers, agents, distributors and engineering firms.

Meat Pro Asia will be co-located with VIV Asia, gathering the entire supply chain under a single roof. VIV Asia is the leading biennial event for the protein production industry across a wide variety of animal species, including pigs, dairy, fish and shrimp, poultry broilers, cattle and calves. Held across 31,000 sqm, VIV Asia in 2019 attracted 1,245 exhibitors and over 45,000 international visitors from more than 120 countries.

Meat Pro Asia is organised by Messe Frankfurt New Era Business Media Ltd and VNU Asia Pacific. The inaugural edition will be held from 10-12 March 2021 at IMPACT, Bangkok. For more information, please e-mail meatproasia@china.messefrankfurt.com and/or panadda@vnuasiapacific.com .
