Hit by the Covid 19 pandemic for the past two years, in-person visits to the Expo were cancelled in 2020, only to return in 2021 under conditions adapted to health safety measures. For this reason, for its 35th anniversary, SPACE has ambitions to make its next edition stronger than ever. It looks to engage in the challenges of livestock farmers, bring together all the different animal production sectors in a forward looking approach, and, thanks to state-of-the-art developments and innovations presented by the exhibitors, show visitors what the livestock industry is really about today. It’s an industry that undergoes continual shifts as it pays close attention to citizens and consumers, one that does what it takes to meet societal demands both in terms of rearing practices and their impact on global climate.
SPACE will be, once again, the gathering place for all the businesses involved in animals productions to look for the future.
Nearly 1,100 exhibitors are registered to participate in this next edition, of which 185 are new and 318 are from countries outside France.
"Livestock farming and climate" will be the theme of the year
Presentations of technical solutions, daily round tables, breeder testimonials and on-farm videos will inform SPACE Expo goers and help them develop ideas on these topics.
Innov'Space Reference
Innovations is the main motivation of our visitors. SPACE will be, this year again, the showcase of the constantly evolving world of breeding. In 2021, 35 products, services and equipment were awarded prizes from the panel of experts. The list of the 2022 prize-winners will be published in July.
