The Monaco Spa Event: 18-20 January 2008 in Monte Carlo
Monte Carlo (November 23, 2007). A new name, a new concept: "The Monaco Spa Event" claims to become leading international exhibition for the luxury spa and wellness industry. From January 18-20, 2008 the organizers will present an innovative sensory exhibition based on the concept of the five senses. It will give visitors a better perspective of the latest trends in beauty, products and treatments, design, construction and management of a luxury spa. hospitalityInside.com is media partner of the Monaco Spa Event.
A new sensorial path allows the visitor to experience the real essence of the global spa and well-being industry, whether you are a hotel/resort investor and owner, architect and planner, or owner and manager of a day spa, destination spa, medical spa, thermal springs spa, thalassotherapy centre, cruise ship spa, club spa, or wellness centre. Senior therapists and educators, health and fitness professionals, tourism and travel-related organisations and operators, plus major retail chains and distributors will also find a wealth of ideas at the show.
Through its own high-level symposium, the Monaco Spa Event will give visitors the information needed to interpret market demands based on professional studies on the spa sector. The demand for spa surveys remains high. Simply put, the 2008 edition of the Monaco Spa Symposium gives professional operators a "forum for exchange", to improve their knowledge and competences.
With competition increasing, architecture and concepts evolving, and customers now much better informed and demanding more services, the summit aims, during three days, to bring the industry up to date on the latest spa trends. It will do so through a fusion of sensorial, technical, professional, and economical experiences designed to improve and deepen knowledge.
