This morning, on stage at Barcelona's Hotel Arts, 2012 IFEAT organizing chair Ravi Sanganeria (Ultra International) announced that Singapore's Marina Bay Sands Hotel will host next year's event November 4-8.
This multicultural business hub will provide a setting for a program centered on the aroma trades in Asia, particularly China and India. Next year's event will include three days of presentations, and one day featuring a perfumery workshop and a trade exhibition.
Further details, including pre- and post-conference tours, will be announced in the new year. Look for coverage of this year's IFEAT in the February issue of Perfumer & Flavorist magazine.
