Hong Kong is recognised as the premier gateway to a wealth of markets across the Asia-Pacific. News of ProWine Asia 2017 taking place in HKSAR sparked swift confirmation for participation by a world of wine and spirits producers eager to present their products and solutions to a diverse audience of importers and power buyers from Southern China, Macau, Taiwan, South Korea and Japan.
PROGRAMME PACKED WITH AN ALL-STAR CAST ProWine Asia 2017 features an on-site programme filled with renowned opinion leaders, trade organisations and associations including Jancis Robinson’s seminars and hosted tastings, Asia Wine Industry summits by Debra Meiburg, trade forums and seminars by Hong Kong Wine Chamber of Commerce, CRU and Whisky Magazines, with other events and developments to come. The event schedule is an amalgamation of forums, masterclasses and tastings, which are designed to benefit both new and experienced trade professionals. These onsite events focus on a range of topics including under-appreciated
wine varieties and regions, ways in which we can judge certain wines and spirits and retail trends and e-commerce solutions which look forward to the future of an evolving industry. ProWine Asia 2017’s collocation with HOFEX, as the dedicated wine and spirits sector and region’s leading food and hospitality exhibition, promises enormous opportunities for business
connections between the wines, food and hospitality industries. The exciting collaboration is set to generate business synergies between suppliers and importers, while bringing highquality, professional buyers to ProWine Asia.
