UBM to launch Singapore edition of maternity show

News this week: UBM China has announced the launch of the new Singapore Children, Babies and Maternity industry Expo (CBME South East Asia) in 2015. The inaugural edition will take place from 16th to 18th April at Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre.

UBM estimates around 4,000 m2 of gross exhibition space will be used to host approximately 200 brands and 3,000 visitors at the first edition of CBME South East Asia. The CBME series includes editions organised in Istanbul, Mumbai, Sao Paulo and Shanghai. As part of the launch campaign, UBM has organised a CBME road show for the first time which will begin at the Mumbai CBME, running from 9th to 11th April. The road show will conclude at the closing of CBME South East Asia in Singapore.

CBME’s general manager, Athena Gong, said, “CBME exhibitors have been looking into extending their reach in Asia, beyond China and India. The launch of CBME South East Asia is in response to the market demand. Singapore, with its efficient transport system and world-class infrastructure is an ideal venue for South East Asia. Its strategic location will be an easy access for Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam and Burma (Myanmar).”
