“As there are different levels of travel restrictions in place in Shenzhen that prevents fairgoers visiting the physical show this week, we have offered a hybrid solution for companies and individuals to access the fair’s resources remotely, allowing them to have an opportunity to do business and to keep up with the industry’s trends and developments through the business matching program, live-streamed concurrent conferences, and fair tours,” says Wendy Wen, managing director, Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd.
