Prolight + Sound Guangzhou 2020 (PLSG) was held successfully last week and gathered 41,556 visitors and 677 exhibitors for its 18th edition at the China Import and Export Fair Complex. The exhibition was one of the first to return following the Covid-19 outbreak.
The organisers strictly followed the local government’s protection guidelines and implemented additional safety measures to ensure the health and safety of every participant. This included: real identity pre-registration, entry checkpoints to verify the digital health code of all participants, and onsite temperature scans. Frequent sanitisation of facilities and distancing measures were also implemented.
Speaking at the conclusion of the fair, Judy Cheung, deputy general manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK), remarked: “In light of the ongoing global pandemic, we are pleased to have received full support from the industry. In keeping with the trend of digitalisation, this year we channelled additional resources to facilitate business online – helping exhibitors market their products more effectively and easing the sourcing process for buyers. For the first time, the entire exhibition, including new products, training courses and seminars were broadcasted. We hope this new ‘offline + online’ experience made it easier for industry players to network, learn and explore business opportunities in the resurgent market.”
Live coverage of the exhibition, including presentations of the industry’s latest products and technologies was broadcasted on HC360.com. Together with the PLSG WeChat platform, which livestreamed the PLSG Annual Training Course, the platforms garnered 165,000 views.
The 19th edition of Prolight + Sound Guangzhou will be held from May 16 to 19, 2021 at China Import and Export Fair Complex in Guangzhou, China.
