VIII.         Application, confirmation, contract

1.     The application for participation sent using the Site has as its object participation in the next edition of SPS Italia. The application must be submitted within the application deadline indicated on the Exhibition Site (the "Application Deadline").

2.     Formalisation of the request to participate in the next edition of SPS Italia is subject to: (i) completion of the special form on the Site, which can be accessed by clicking on the "request a stand" button; (ii) acceptance of these general conditions, which are deemed to be fully known and unconditionally accepted, by the applicant by placing a flag in the relevant acknowledgement and acceptance field on the Site; The fulfilment of these requirements will allow inclusion in the lists for the allocation of exhibition spaces.

3.   The contract is valid for the period indicated on the application or, if the dates are moved, for the new dates indicated by MFI.

4.  MFI shall not be liable for any consequences or damages resulting indirectly or directly from inaccurate, misleading, inaccurate or incomplete data or other information provided by the Exhibitor in his application; MFI reserves the right to disregard applications that contain insufficient or incomplete data or are received after the Application Deadline.

5.     The applicant declares that the completion of the application and the subsequent steps to formalise the application will be carried out by persons with authority to bind the applicant.

6.     Except as provided for in the case of collective exhibition space (art. 7) and in the case of represented companies (art. 8), the participation contract is valid exclusively for the registered Exhibitor or, in the case of a collective exhibition area, for the Promoter and its participants. The Exhibitor is not permitted to transfer the stand area, either in whole or in part, even if this is done free of charge. Furthermore, he is not permitted to host or represent other companies on his own stand area without written permission from the Organiser. An exchange of stand area is only permitted with the prior written permission of MFI. In the event of non-compliance, MFI is entitled to terminate the contract without notice and to have the stand area cleared at the expense of the Exhibitor.

7.     Registration is also permitted with the formula of "Pavilion Organiser". In this case, the registration is carried out by a subject who assumes the role of "Pavilion Organiser" who will then indicate with a specific form at least 4 names of the Pavilion exhibitors authorized to present their products within the exhibition area rented by the Pavilion Organizer. Registration must be made by specifying the "Exhibitor Type" " My company / the contract company wants to participate together with other exhibitors” or “My company / the contract company will not exhibit myself / himself but will bring other exhibitors to the fair” and the confirmation of the exhibition area will be sent exclusively to the Pavilion Organiser who will be the only contractual partner of MFI. The exhibitors indicated by the Pavilion Organiser may participate in the exhibition only with prior authorization from MFI. In the event that the Pavilion Organiser admits a participant to a collective exhibition area without prior authorization from MFI, the latter has the right to terminate, without notice, the contract with the Pavilion Organizer and to have the exhibition space cleared at the expense of the Pavilion Organizer space. The exhibitors indicated by the Pavilion Organizer who are authorized by MFI will have the right to: i) single insurance coverage entitled to the Pavilion Organizer itself, ii) 2 exhibitor passes, iii) 1 internal parking pass and 1 external pass, iv) 2 login for the SPS Italia app and v) visibility in the online and on-site exhibitor list. These exhibitors, as participants in a collective stand, cannot be a direct contracting party of any service provided by MFI or the suppliers of the event, since these services are reserved to the Pavilion Organizer as the sole contractual partner of MFI.

8.     During the registration, the exhibitor can also formulate an application for Represented Companies, using the appropriate form. This exhibition formula allows the exhibitor to physically exhibit on his stand and online in the digital catalogue, in addition to his own products, the products of other entrepreneurs and/or the brands of third parties, falling within the product categories of the event and which could potentially be direct exhibitors of the fair. By submitting this application, the exhibitor i) declares to have all the necessary authorizations for the use of the trademarks and distinctive signs of the Represented Company which will be associated by him in any way with his participation in SPS Italia, including any use in exhibition space and in the event catalog and ii) undertakes to indemnify and hold MFI harmless from any third party claim alleging the violation of third party rights in relation to the brands and/or products of the Represented Company. The Represented Company does not have the right to directly acquire visibility in terms of sponsorships or services and is not entitled to insurance, exhibitor cards, parking passes and logins for the SPS Italia app.

9.     The participation contract is valid only for the products specified in the application form and admitted by MFI. In the event that the Exhibitor wishes to change its exhibition programme, it must notify MFI of the products it intends to add and remove sufficiently in advance before the start of the event so that MFI can carry out the necessary checks and take the necessary measures. In the case of notifications received less than two months before the start of the event, MFI cannot guarantee that it will be able to carry out the necessary verifications and thus also admission. In the event that the Exhibitor, without prior approval from MFI, changes its product offering from the data provided in the application form, MFI shall be entitled to terminate the concluded participation contract without notice; in this case, for the purposes of applying penalties, the termination by Messe Frankfurt will be considered as an unjustified withdrawal by the Exhibitor with consequent application of points XI.1 and XI.2. The Exhibitor may not claim any right of compensation against MFI.

 

IX.         Conditions for admission, termination without notice of collective exhibition areas

1.     Companies whose products fall within the product sectors of the event, as well as publishing houses specialising in the sector, are eligible to exhibit. Other companies will be admitted by MFI insofar as their exhibits represent an essential complement to the offer.

2.     The Exhibitor undertakes to provide MFI with all necessary information regarding his company and the products to be exhibited. The products to be exhibited (exhibits, products, merchandise groups, exhibits and exhibits) include, depending on the theme of the event, software products and services that are suitable for an exhibition presentation.

3.     MFI has the right to reject applications based on the exhibition area available and the nature and structure of the event as defined by MFI. The Exhibitor may not claim or assert any rights from participation in previous events.

4.     For each event, MFI determines in particular the distribution per sector and product groupings, as well as the respective percentage quantity, and is entitled, when deciding on admission, to take into account the distribution of exhibitors according to origin, business structure, economic categories and other objective criteria. MFI is not bound by decisions made for previous events.

5.     MFI is entitled to deny admission to companies that have merely acquired company values, such as name and trade mark rights, from exhibitors who participated in previous editions. This rule does not apply in the case of a legal succession of legal relations.

6.     MFI has the right at any time to disallow or exclude from the exhibition those products that do not correspond to the objectives it has set for the event.

4.     MFI is entitled to change the exhibition areas in terms of location or size, even after confirmation, if special circumstances force it to resort to such measures.

5.     Such measures do not entitle the Exhibitor to withdraw from participation or to claim compensation from MFI, except in the case of intent or gross negligence. The Exhibitor does, however, have a right of withdrawal in the event that MFI offers him 50% less exhibition space than agreed.

6.     Each free side may have a maximum closure of 50%. The imperative need for closure can only be obviated by the construction of transparent walls, which allow a view of the inside of the stand from the passage aisles, or the use of walls/flower walls with a maximum height of 1.00 m from the ground.

7.     Set-ups must be strictly contained within the area booked and assigned, identifiable by means of partition walls or adhesive tapes; their standard height is set at 2.50 m; a maximum tolerance of 0.50 m. will be allowed to the above height limit. 0.50 m. and so on for a total of 3.00 m.; Exhibitors intending to avail themselves of this right are not obliged to make a prior request to Fiere di Parma and the Organisers but are obliged to perfectly and decorously finish, including uniform painting, all their walls facing adjoining stands. No lettering, trademarks or other graphic motifs may be displayed on such structures or walls. The Exhibitor is only obliged to submit the stand design if the stand fittings exceed a height of 3.00 m.. In this case the Exhibitor must send the executive project of the stand to the Technical Office of Fiere di Parma at least 60 days before the start of the exhibition. The organising secretariat reserves the right to evaluate requests for mezzanine floors. The cost per square metre for the mezzanine floor is equal to the official rate for 4 free sides. Mezzanine floors may only be requested for sizes above 150 square metres, unless technical constraints or structural impediments prevent it.
