英富曼集團發布2021年展望

4月底，英富曼集團發布了公司2021年展望。公司將2021年稱為“B2B實體展會的轉型之年”，并表示各地線下展復展速度因地域而異。其中，中國大陸、北美和中東的速度要快于其他地方。

2020年，英富曼集團大幅增加了線上展和混合展的體量。2021年，公司將與各行各業的重要伙伴展開合作，并基于2020年的服務經驗和客戶反饋來開展業務。目前，公司一共有40多場B2B展會成功在線下舉辦，在澳大利亞、迪拜、埃及、日本、泰國、英國等地的展會也已確定將很快舉辦，但歐洲大陸的線下展會依然有很大的不確定性。

2021 outlook by Informa

Informa PLC have released their 2021 outlook. Calling 2021 a “transition year for B2B physical events”， the group says it expects “activity levels [to be] dependent upon the pace and scale of re-opening of physical events， which ... is varying by region and customer market”. Mainland China， North America and the Middle East， in that order， are tracking ahead of Europe， the company says. In the U.S.， Informa reports a progressive return of B2B physical events on a state-by-state basis.

In Mainland China， the group has now run 45 B2B events post-COVID， six of these with revenues in line or ahead of 2019 levels. Elsewhere， Informa have seen or have now confirmed a return to physical B2B events in Australia， Dubai， Egypt， Japan， Malaysia， Taiwan， Thailand and the UK， amongst others. There remains continued uncertainty over the pace and rate of return in Continental Europe. In 2020， Informa expanded significantly into virtual and hybrid events. The group is “building on this experience and customer feedback in 2021”， partnering with a range of key partners. www.informa.com/investor-relations
