Participating companies of the EFS 2013 gave best marks:
“For us the European Fitness Summit is the perfect complement to the leading international trade show FIBO. This is just the right mix of exclusive meetings where we can take time for our customers and networking during the accompanying events. Once again, organization was brilliant.” Eckbert Ganns, General Manager, Life Fitness
“Once again, the EFS offered the opportunity for concrete and constructive discussions in a pleasant atmosphere – with old friends and acquaintances on one hand but also with new prospects. All in all, it was a thoroughly successful and professional event.” Marcus Schall, Director of Sales & Marketing, Woodway GmbH
“Especially for a young company like us, the European Fitness Summit is the perfect opportunity to offer consultation from a conceptual perspective. There is hardly any other event where we can have such productive discussions. The European Fitness Summit therefore is also an occasion to get our foot in the door with the international fitness industry. We succeeded in genuinely wowing our audience here. In Barcelona we presented our new multifunctional wall – for studio operators this is an investment to cater for people of all age groups. We look forward to coming back.” Daniel Borschel, Cube Sports GmbH
“The Pullmann Skipper Hotel is a top location as an event venue. The ambiance is congenial, the short distances make for a high degree of efficiency allowing you to concentrate on the essential points. These are excellent conditions for doing business. Compared to the previous year, we were able to once again increase the number of discussions with both customers and non-customers.” Christian Dietrich, Managing Director, Technogym Deutschland
