After a six-month long process, it has been decided that INDEX20 will take place in Geneva from March 31 to April 3, 2020. EDANA has signed an agreement for the organisation of INDEX20 in Geneva with Palexpo, the winner among three shortlisted professional exhibition organisers. Five exhibition organisers were originally invited to submit a proposal.
 
The three finalists were proposing to host INDEX20 in a range of exhibition halls located in six different European cities. The proposals were subjected to a wide range of evaluation criteria, which included the value, quality and services for the exhibitors, the quality, originality and comprehensiveness of the proposed marketing plans, the ease of access by the over 12,000 visitors and exhibitors, the quality of the facilities, and the support to EDANA's mission and vision.
 
Palexpo's offer to host INDEX20 in Geneva was declared the winner by the Board of Governors of EDANA.
 
"In general, outstanding ideas were brought forward, with valid proposals to take INDEX20 to another high after the resounding successes of the 2014 edition and INDEX17, which is already now confirmed as the largest ever nonwovens exhibition. EDANA has chosen Palexpo because we trust the new Palexpo team to ensure continuity, innovation and competence," said Pieter Meijer, director of sales, McAirlaid's, and chairman of EDANA's Exhibition Advisory Board.
 
"It is with great pleasure that we learned that our proposal had met the approval of EDANA's Board, and we are most honoured to continue working hand-in-hand with EDANA to make the 13th edition of this exhibition in Geneva, which is the world's leading event in its field, a great success," said Claude Membrez, general manager, Palexpo.
 
EDANA offers its member companies a wide range of high level services and benefits. Organising successful industry events is in line with its mission to provide global leadership in creating an environment beneficial to the nonwovens and related industries' sustainable and profitable growth, according to EDANA.
