GrootGroenPlus 2020 , which will be held from 30 September to 2 October , will not put up a physical platform , but a digital platform . The registrations and advance requital will be transferred to the physical variant that will take place on 6 - 27 January 2025 . This way , participant do not have to pay up for the expansive digitalparticipation in 2020 .
" The situation regarding Covid-19 creates uncertainness and vagueness , especially when it comes to trade fair . No one has a crystal lump . And experts also do not always concord . Even though we want to postpone making our decision to 1 September , we feel that by now , we have enough information and perceptiveness to come to a launch conclusion " , the organization says .
PandemicAs GrootGroenPlus , they have tell from the start that we do not want to take a gamble when it come to the wellness of all those who are involved with the trade reasonable . " When the prospects appeared to become more incontrovertible , we decided to continue working on a forcible and digital trade fair . We were able to do this , thanks to the involvement of our participants and suppliers . "
AttainabilityThey can not prevail out the theory that Covid-19 will influence engagement in and sojourn to merchandise fair in the come eld . " This year , the physical version of the trade fair was partly dependent on virus outbreaks here , in our part , in the area where our suppliers , participants , and visitor are turn up . In short : the international ( tree nursery ) domain . Another factor was getting the necessary licence . For that , we had to swear on the political science and all applicable communications protocol . We have taken sufficient sentence to process all of this , and therefore , we know that we would have been quick for it . Covid-19 and the safetyrequire adjustments and flexibility , and we do not see any problem there . "
However , they do see a problem with the recent measure that fresh infection can lead to a closure of a maximum of 14 days . " This might lead to problems during the set up and the trade fair daylight . Even though we take that everyone will adhere to the rules , we are stilltalking about a fate of people - and a lot of businesses and military volunteer organisation . We have reached the conclusion that it would not be responsible to take on these kinds of uninsurable risks with money provided by our industriousness . Besides ; the basic rules in most countries are still the same ; piece of work from home as much as you could , stave off gang . "
Commercial possibilitiesThe platform was also created to bring value to commercial opportunities in the tree nursery diligence . " The current corona discharge crisis is a threat for our sales . The tree nursery is used to dealing with terror , and knows how to recover through its own resource . That was our motivation to do our utmost , and to utilize a twin - track strategy . In the last few weeks , we all witnessed experts adapt their expectations have-to doe with a second wave of corona event - this will belike add up much preferably than the fall of 2020 . "
This also made them interrogate the sex appeal of a physical platform . " Further adjustment of our plans could also possibly put the characteristic atmosphere of GGP under pressure , which would mean that we would no longer be capable to provide the quality we trust . "
Widening the passageway , one - way - streets , split the crowd , time time slot for visitors , extra shuttle , pass places , 100 seats , and supervisors could be gibe into the program , according to protocol , for deterrent example by adjusting the accommodation . " We will bring this knowledge , expertness , and experience to the 31st variation in 2021 , and to Groenbeurs Zundert , which will be hosted on 20 and 21 January , and which is opened for registration right now . "
However , the increase number of infections in their immediate surroundings and in the residue of the world , combined with the new measure , might potentially lead to trouble with the setup , wavering , and travel limitations for participants and visitant , which will require another limit on the identification number of allow participants and visitant . " Of of course , this also has an effect on budget and face . "
VisitorsThey of late enter the enrollment form for visitant and press , to check the view among visitors . " We could clear see that the turn of people that are sure they want to chat the swop fair is much low than in other years . We can all suppose the reason for this , but let ’s just say it will probably have to do with the uncertainty of the current place . unsatisfying craft reasonable results and a less than desirable look and feel might lead to less participant and visitant in the futurity . Even if we ’re not looking at all the risk of a strong-arm carnival ; this is also something we do n’t require . "
" believe all the pros and sting of a physical trade reasonable , we have no other alternative but to close that we have to transfer all the registrations for this year to the variant of 6 - 13 April 2025 . This year , we will proffer a ( free ) wide digital platform as a avail to all registrant . We are prepared for the 1.5 - meter society , and we have a flock of option for a cracking digital program , which can be assist without restriction and hurdles . "
Communication plan"We announced this decision first to those who intrust in us , and walked alongside us during the last few week - such as the 150 player and 31 suppliers . After that , we inform everyone else require . Our twintrack strategy and the two-fold work we did allowed us , partly thanks to those partners , to postpone this decision for as long as potential . If the positive vibraphone of the beginning of this summertime would have continue , we might have been putting in edict in good order now . We have to invest in 2020 anyway ; and now we did just that in the forcible trade fair of 2021 , and the digital options of 2020 . "
FutureIn the next six weeks , they will allow you with more information , possibilities , and details regarding the digital trade wind comely day .
