Chairman of the World Exhibition Industry Association: The very nature of exhibitions and exhibition industry in general is to be a place for communication, meeting, trade, cooperation between people and industries. These meetings are especially important in times of crisis, and we are committed to providing such opportunities whenever possible.

According to the Iran International Stone Fair, Corona's health prevalence has affected world exhibitions and the exhibition industry, as we all know that various events have been postponed or canceled.

In this regard, the World Exhibition Industry Association cooperates with its members in all parts of the world to respond appropriately to this situation. We stand for the sympathy and support of all those who have been directly or indirectly affected by the Corona outbreak.

The general nature of exhibition exhibitions and industry in general is to be a place for communication, meeting, business, cooperation between people and industries. These meetings are especially important in times of crisis, and we are committed to providing such opportunities whenever possible. In particular, small and medium-sized businesses in all industries are dependent on exhibitions, and like all types of exhibitions, they support the economy around the world.

As representatives of the exhibition industry, we are committed to providing these required meeting places around the world and wherever we can. But whenever it comes to health, we will rely on experts in this field, from global delegations such as the World Health Organization to national, regional and local health officials, and wherever we hold our exhibitions, we follow their advice to Ensure the security of the participants.

We emphasize that we will support the communities and markets we serve, and we will resist during today's challenging and tense period. In this regard, we are ready to prove this fact once again and we will play our role in overcoming the current situation.
