For participants : Expo allows international outreach and economic opportunities
Expo hosts invite countries, international organisations, the civil society and companies to participate to the event and be a part of the exhibition through their own pavilions and dedicated spaces. This gives participants a unique stage to present their achievements, culture, products etc. to an international audience. This has an impact on their international image but also on the development of their activities.
Expos allow countries to strengthen their cooperation ties with the host country and other participant countries, as well as promote their local products. Companies can expand their markets by participating to the organization of the event, meeting with other companies and investors and engaging with a new audience. Expos also offer a stage to International Organizations and the civil society to raise awareness on the causes that they defend.
