Living up to its reputation as one of the best places to get a feel for new trends in the livestock industry, SPACE 2017 welcomed a staggering 114,653 visitors to its four-day expo (12% up on last year); 14,029 of who were from a total of 128 countries
Hoping to win the trust and engage interest from these prospective customers, an impressive 1,441 exhibitors made their way to the Rennes Exhibition Centre from September 12-15, to present their latest innovations in animal feed and nutrition, farm buildings, genetics, animal health, milking energy, livestock effluent treatment.
Testament to its significance within the globalised livestock market calendar, 443 of the companies were foreign and 89 of those were new to the show, whilst a host of official visitors from the United States, West Africa and Europe were also in attendance.
Opening the show on its first day, the French Minister of Agriculture, Stephane Travert commented, “Consumers have several needs and sometimes they are complex, which provides exceptional opportunities in terms of new market and added-value development. It will also bring new challenges for both the environment and safety.”
Innov’Space
Out of 160 entries, the 47 winners of the Innov’Space awards were announced at the Exhibitors’ Soirée on Tuesday September 12, 2017. Covering many aspects of animal production including the cattle, sheep and goat sectors, the new products or services were selected this year as genuinely innovative by a multidisciplinary panel, independent of the SPACE organisers.
In recognition of their cutting-edge technology and expertise, one of the products awarded and now carrying the prestigious Innov’Space label is DSM’s Ronozyme Rumistar enzyme.
More than 70 conferences and seminars
With more than 70 conferences and seminars being held across the four days, there was something for everyone to learn first-hand and discuss with colleagues and peers, reinforcing SPACE as a melting pot of industry leaders driving the sector towards a prosperous future.
Spare seats in the seminars were few and far between, as speakers held their audiences rapt, examining topics such as the ‘Analytical approach and strategies for analysing contaminants in animal feed’, ‘Developments in animal health and welfare’ and ‘Additives and European regulation: case of grape extract’.
Expanding its reach into the lively and related arm of aquaculture, SPACE also held an ‘Improving productivity in aquaculture’ conference, as exhibition manager Anne-Marie told us, “Aquaculture is a new focus that we want to expand there at SPACE because we know that many international business developments are linked between what we have here in pigs and poultry.”
