THE Central European visitor survey
- Written by Greg Nagy
The major objective of research - started on initiative of and conducted by CENTREX Union itself - was to try to arrive at relevant and important conclusions drawn from wide ranging research by asking visitors - the ultimate customers of the exhibition industry. The first of its kind in Central East Europe - and the first multinational exhibition industry survey - considering today's economic and social aspects of the region it was focused to obtain the opinions, the perceptions, appraisals and visions of the visitors of fairs and exhibitions - impersonating the real market demands in real-time environment.

Never stop learning!
- Written by Greg Nagy
We organise different programmes/actions targeting our (would be) partners, mostly pioneering: in multinational visitor surveys, or Euro-regional competition for university students on their vision of trade fairs, or the exhibition forums dedicated to unique and hot topics, or training for exhibitors, SMEs and companies willing to internationalize - and exhibition organisers.
CENTREX also has an Exhibition Knowledge Center/Library at our website which contains a wide ranging collection of exhibition knowledge materials so even with those we try contribute to improve the awareness, knowledge of our partners and to make our visitors satisfied.
If you have any question or inquiry please contact us through any of our availability.
