SILMO PARIS TO BE HELD IN-PERSON
he French government announced a plan to progressively release
the country’s lock-down measures. This officially confirms
Twhat the SILMO team has been anticipating: that trade fairs,
conferences and exhibitions will be able to open. Starting from June 30,
there will be no maximal capacity for such events, as long as the health
measures still in force are observed.
The benefits of worldwide vaccination campaigns and their widespread
acceleration, the loosening of international travel conditions, the
establishment of a European health pass, and the obvious eagerness of
professionals to reunite enable the SILMO team to confirm that Silmo
Paris 2021 will take place in-person, September 24-27, in Paris.
“After two years without any major international assemblies, the
reunion of optical and eyewear industry professionals will only be
more intense, I’m sure. The whole team of SILMO Paris is hard at work
to prepare this recovery edition, and we are looking forward to seeing
you! We can’t wait to amaze you once again with the talent of these
enthusiastic professionals. We can’t wait to enjoy the delight of
discovery, the opportunity for encounters and the conviviality of
discussions. It is clear that all the technology in the world will never
replace the power and emotion of a physical event,” said Amélie Morel,
Chairwoman of SILMO Paris.
