An exciting rendezvous at Villa Erba, Cernobbio, Como, Italy, May 7-8-9, 2013.
It is all and only European and only by invitation. The exhibitors have to be European and the visitors have to be invited. Only textile editors, manufacturers of upholstered furniture, wholesalers, converters, buying groups and contract operators are admitted to the fair. Entrance to the fair is possible only with an entry card issued by the Operative Secretariat.
“Always on the move” is the positive message we see on the advertising artwork of Proposte 2013 edition. The slogan expresses the idea of continuous renewal, moving with the times, not giving up in the face of adversity. In the distance, we see a man striding over the golden sands, leaving a trail of deep footprints. The shining horizon suggests existing opportunities, goals that can be reached by constantly moving forwards.
At Villa Erba in Cernobbio (Como) the 21th edition of Proposte will be inaugurated on the 7th of May.
