A functional ingredients show in South America was an unmarred success, it has been claimed.
A functional ingredients show in South America passed without a single item of negative feedback, it has been revealed.
Vincent Brain, events manager for organiser United Business Media, claims that the positive response to the Health ingredients (Hi) South America Summit is an indication of the importance of the market there.
"There was not one word of negative comment on the event, showing that it satisfied both visitors and exhibitors," he says.
"Hi South America shows that the functional ingredients sector is highly dynamic."
Among the topics discussed at the mid-June event were obesity, micro-encapsulation, sports nutrition and health issues such as cardiovascular fitness and diabetes.
Further exhibitions upcoming from United Business Media include Food ingredients (Fi) Asia in September 2009 and Fi Europe in November.
Meanwhile, the next Hi Europe event is due to take place in November 2010 and has already been nominated for the Association of Event Organisers' Best Trade Show Over 2,000 sq m award.
