Pursuing the guidelines given to Exhibitions by the Minister of Economic Development, Carlo Calenda, CarraraFiere and BolognaFiere have found themselves in agreement with respect to the enhancement of the concept of “trade fair network”. A concept which, indeed, seems perfectly in line with the idea that the new management of CarraraFiere has been carrying on for some time now, and that led to the creation alliances and synergies throughout Italy. Today, we celebrate the “marriage” between the most important European trade show dedicated to the world of four-wheel drive, 4x4FEST, and the event that, over the years, with its ability to combine entertainment and innovation, has been capable of attracting crowds of visitors from abroad and all Italian regions: the Motor Show.
