► HOW IT WORKS
Buyers fill in the profiling form while sellers fill in the offer form. 
After filling in the form directly from their reserved area, they can contact the operators present by selecting them thanks to an effective search engine. Once the appointments have been confirmed, the system generates an agenda that allows the buyer to arrive at the fair with a precise schedule of meetings at the stands.
During Ecomondo, appointments last about 20 minutes each and are held directly at the exhibitors booths.
