Limits and what this does not prove: The 1,800+ exhibitor, 65,000+ attendee and 55,000+ product figures are organiser scale claims, not a complete public buyer directory. The ICE terms apply only to eligible Italian firms and do not establish equivalent support for other nationalities or direct exhibitors. The first 12 sqm module does not establish total build, utility, freight, staffing, travel, tax or optional-service cost. Exhibitor, product or pavilion presence does not prove a live project package, meeting acceptance or procurement authority.

Questions before commitment
Which live project, package, specification owner or distributor problem must each meeting validate?
Is the company eligible for the cited ICE collective route, and what costs remain outside the first 12 sqm module?
Which named meetings, samples, approvals and local-service evidence justify exhibition rather than visitor attendance?
