After the month of January, where I boarded no flights, February has seen six segments, March will have 13. I reported on my trip to the Netherlands and my presentation at the VES Conference in the last blog, now I would like to share my wonderful experience at the Forum event in Bologna.
19th Annual Forum Piscine, Bologna:
Addressing a room of 400 operators from Italy at the Annual Forum event, I shared the stage with F45 European Expansion Director Luke Armstrong. Forum grew the fitness part of their show significantly. 6.500 trade visitors and 130 booths.

Meeting friends such as Gianluca Scazzosi of Wellback Systems, Fausto de Guilio or REX Europe, Andrea Pambianchi of Hard Candy / Dablui and Paolo Fantacci made the event special for me. Plus the legendary dinner for speakers was a feast to be remembered. Feb. 15-27, 2019 will be the 20th Annual event.
