The VAD e-commerce Show celebrates its 15th edition!

18, 19 and 20 October 2011 - Lille


18-19 and 20 october 2011

Lille, 16th May 2011 - On 18, 19 and 20 October 2011, the 15th edition of the VAD e-commerce Show will take place in Lille. Since its creation, this event has proposed a multichannel approach for traditional distance selling companies, pure players and more recently retailers. Channels are evolving with the emergence of m-commerce and social media (online Facebook strategies to engage customers...). 
In this context of constant mutation with enlightened and empowered consumers, the show is now more than ever a unique rendez-vous for businesses to find solutions and strategies to optimise their development by playing the cross-channel card.

Key figures 2011

>    300 exhibitors
>    12,000 visitors
>    13% international exhibitors and + 11% international visitors
>    + 120 conferences and workshops for over 5,500 conference attendees

Targeted Approach


In France in 2010, the FEVAD registered 82,000 active online retail sites and an internet site is created every two hours in the country.
As a result, e-commerce merchants have varying levels of expertise and experience.
In order to provide solutions for their development and marketing  needs, the VAD e-commerce show has organised its Conference Programme (workshops, conferences, master classes...) to provide tailor-made solutions for starters, advanced  or expert  visitors and attendees.

Over 15,000 m² of exhibition space with a 360° vision of multichannel and digital solutions


During three days, French and international exhibitors in three complementary exhibition zones - Multichannel World, Digital World and Innovation World - will provide 12,000 visitors a 360° vision of trends, techniques and innovations in the multichannel and  digital market.
