About GED
GED is actively supported by 41 associations as of today, and coordinated by UFI. As with previous GED campaigns, industry professionals, companies, associations and students around the world have been very active in the GED online activities.
With 260 million visitors and 4.4 million exhibitors generating €98bn revenues every year, GED highlights the positive impact of exhibitions on jobs, business, innovation and local investment.
UFI estimates that half of exhibition spending benefits host territories directly, and the other half benefits the exhibitions industry, creating or maintaining hundreds of thousands of jobs.
