What to know about FARETE

FARETE is a lean, two-day networking hub focused specifically on regional B2B matchmaking and subcontracting within the industrial and service sectors of the Emilia-Romagna region. Unlike broader trade fairs, it is organized by Confindustria Emilia and emphasizes quick, high-volume speed-dating sessions and structured technical exchanges rather than grand displays.

Prioritize the Matchmaking Platform

The show relies heavily on a pre-fair digital matchmaking platform to schedule one-on-one appointments; your booth may see low organic traffic if your diary isn't pre-filled by the software.

Prepare for Uniform Booth Specs

The event operates on a standardized booth layout model to ensure equality among SMEs; focus your budget on technical staff and high-quality printed collateral rather than custom structural builds.

Emphasize Local Supply Chain Integration

A significant portion of attendees are looking for local production partners and specialized industrial maintenance; highlight your proximity to or understanding of the local 'Motor Valley' or 'Packaging Valley' supply chains.

Leverage Local Hospitality Norms

Business is conducted with a focus on 'Emilian' hospitality; having high-quality local coffee or simple refreshments can be more effective for closing technical discussions than digital gadgets.
