Domotex Asia/Chinafloor will focus on nature and sustainability for its 26th edition of the show, which will take place May 28-30, 2024, in Shanghai, China. 

Domotex Middle East is returning to Dubai from April 23-25 at the Dubai World Trade Centre. 

VNU Exhibitions Asia will change its English name to Globus Events to better reflect its growth potential following the partnership with Advent.

The Educational Foundation of the International Furnishings and Design Association (IFDA) announced its 2024 Board of Trustees, selected to oversee and administer more than $30,000 in annual design-related scholarships and grants.

With a strategic approach, the segment will take part in the Bond ARC Middle East, an event that connects suppliers with designers and major architectural firms responsible for high-end projects in the Middle East region, taking place from February 9-12 in Abu Dhabi.

The goal of the strategy shift is to reach new markets and audiences and grow the stone sector internationally, show organizers said. 

The figure reflects the resilience of the sector, which, after meeting pent-up demand in the post-pandemic period, keeps facing old problems such as logistical obstacles.

The Vitoria Stone Fair 2024 in Vitora, Brazil, opens this week and FLOOR Trends & Installation will be on the ground learning about the natural stones of Brazil.

The show, which welcomes participants from everywhere in the world and showcasing innovations and new business opportunities from all Asia’s flooring markets, will take place in Shanghai on May 28-30, 2024. 

The event helped Brazil's natural stone sector to establish global connections and showcase its national geological heritage with the world.
