POSIDONIA 2008: BREAKING ALL RECORDS Every two years the Greek shipowners welcome the international shipping community to Posidonia and extend their celebrated hospitality that makes participation a real pleasure. But exhibitors should be ready for serious discussions with corporate, technical and operations management taking a keen interest in their products and services. Posidonia is renowned not only for the networking opportunities and contacts made on the busy exhibition stands, but importantly for the number and value of deals concluded during the show. Posidonia is meeting the growing demand for exhibition space with the flexible and efficient facilities of the Hellenikon Exhibition Centre. For 2008 this will accommodate up to 27,500 sqm of exhibition space on one level, with easy access and no weight limitations on equipment and machinery exhibits. It will provide spacious car parking, a business centre, a seminar room and easy access to the international airport and to Piraeus and Athens city centres. In nearly 40 years Posidonia has grown to become the major maritime industry event. In 2006 over 16,000 buyers from 81 maritime nations, more than are represented at any other maritime event, visited over 1,600 exhibitors. In 2008 exhibitors will again benefit from Posidonia's unrivalled global reach.
