• World exhibitions - EXPO World exhibitions (EXPOs) are mega events at which the participating countries brand themselves and display their latest inventions related to the theme of the exhibition. Everyday items like the telephone (1876), video conference (1964) and touchscreens (1982) were all presented for the first time on an EXPO. The next universal EXPO takes place in Milan, Italy in 2015. The theme of Expo Milan 2015 is Feeding the Planet, Energy for life, aiming at creating dialogue between international players and exchanging views on these major worldwide challenges. Denmark does not participate in the 2015 EXPO.
Epilogue • EXPO MILANO 2015 •
Corporate • The involvement of the corporate world within Expo Milano 2015 is of paramount
importance for the success of the event. A Universal Exposition looking towards the future and towards technological innovation would not be effective without the active involvement of businesses, the driving force behind research and progress.
• Companies can also take part in Expo Milano 2015 as Corporate Participants: they will be involved in the development of technology, innovative research, products and good practices that are in line with the theme Feeding the Planet, Energy for Life. To become a Corporate Participant, the Company must, as part of the Request for Proposal (RFP), submit a Theme Statement and sign a Participation Agreement with Expo 2015 S.p.A to build, equip, operate and dismantle the Pavilion, highlighting one or more aspects of the Expo Milano 2015 theme. The Universal Exposition is in fact an exceptional international communication platform and a unique stage for businesses to boost their brand image with the millions of visitors.
