COVID-19 – Paris Motor Show – Paris Motion Festival important announcement from Luc CHATEL and Frédéric BEDIN

In light of the seriousness of this unprecedented health crisis and its consequent economic shock wave, which has severely struck the automotive sector, we are forced to announce that we will not be able to hold the 2020 Paris Motor Show in its current format at the Porte de Versailles.

Movin’On, the Smart City and side events are not concerned for the moment. We are thoroughly examining all alternative solutions with our main partners. The deep reinvention of the event that we had already initiated, particularly with the Festival dimension around sustainable mobility as well as an important BtoB section, could offer this opportunity.

Nothing will ever be the same, but from this crisis we must learn to become agile, creative and more innovative than ever.

We will keep you informed, as we go along, of the decisions we will make.

As for now, our thoughts go to those directly affected by the pandemic, our health-care personnel as well as our clients who have to face, with solid determination, the economic impact of this crisis on their companies.
