Le Forum-EVEX is set to take place in Cannes, France, from 16 to 18 October, drawing a record attendance of approximately 450 professionals from the vending industry.
More than 140 European vending machine operators and 82 supplier partners have confirmed their participation.
The event will be held at the Carlton Hotel, located on the Croisette. It will feature a series of conferences and workshops organised by FCM magazine, the French Vending Association (NAVSA) and the European Vending & Coffee Service Association (EVA).
Key discussion topics will include responsible vending practices, the ongoing relevance of coffee in the sector and strategies to meet consumer demand. Attendees will also have the option to select topics for three additional workshops through a pre-event survey.
The event will commence with a gala dinner on the evening of 16 October to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the EVA, followed by the Annual General Assembly the next morning, which will review the association's developments over the past three decades.
On 17 October, participants will attend a ‘white evening’ at a nearby villa, where the Innovation Awards 2024 will be presented. This collaboration with Le Forum aims to enhance networking opportunities and increase the reach of vending operators within the industry.
