Global industry executives from the animal feed processing, grain processing, ingredients & additives, aquafeed, petfood and biomass pelleting industries traveled to Cologne in Germany on June 13 & 14, 2017 for the first edition of FVG Select.
The focus of FVG Select was networking, business match-making and gathering new industry knowledge. This was facilitated through an extensive conference and matchmaking program. The following conferences were organized in collaboration with partners AEBIOM, Aquafeed.com, IFF & Wageningen University, Perendale Publishers and WATT Global Media:
- FIAAP Animal Nutrition Conference 2017
- Aquafeed Horizons Europe 2017
- AEBIOM International Pellet Workshop 2017
- Petfood Forum Europe 2017
- GRAPAS & Global Milling Conference 2017
- VICTAM Feed Processing Conference 2017
The matchmaking program consisted of a combination of an online tool, which allowed exhibitors and visitors to plan their appointments very efficiently and a personal approach by Victam matchmaking consultants before and during the event and added between 10-20% meetings to everyone’s schedule.
Another new feature that was introduced during this event was the VICTAM News Room. Speakers, visitors and exhibitors were interviewed about their expertise. The news crew also made running reports about the events through Victam’s social media channels. To catch an impression of the event and watch all the interviews visit the VICTAM YouTube channel.
FVG Select is an additional event to the large exhibitions and conferences in Cologne and Bangkok. The business match-making program and the News Room will also be introduced during VICTAM Asia 2018 and VICTAM International 2019.
Almost 1,000 visitors from 59 countries and every continent were represented at this year\'s event. The next event organized by Victam International BV is VICTAM Asia from March 27-29, 2018 in Bangkok, Thailand. VICTAM International will be organized from June 12 – 14, 2019 in Cologne, Germany.
