Optical Dispensers Australia (ODA) has become a supporting partner of the inaugural SILMO Singapore show taking place in April 2023.
The event will be the Asian flagship edition of SILMO Paris, the international B2B eyewear and lifestyle tradeshow considered the launch pad for new designs, collections, and technology in the eyewear industry.
SILMO Singapore is scheduled for 12-14 April 2023 at the Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre.
It is expected to bring together more than 250 international and local brands across 6,000 sqm of exhibition space. Over 3,000 visitors are also expected to attend.
“We are thrilled to see the SILMO brand expand into Singapore next year. Having an international optics and eyewear trade fair of this scale in Singapore is exciting for Australia, as the location is not only the gateway to Southeast Asia but is also an accessible destination for countries within the Oceania region,” ODA CEO Ms April Petrusma said.
“SILMO has always been an integral part of the Australian optical and eyewear industry and as such Optical Dispensers Australia is proud to be a supporting partner of SILMO Singapore.”
In addition to ODA, the event has secured the support of other industry bodies such as the Singapore Optometric Association (SOA) and the India Vision Institute (IVI), among others. The Asia Optometric Congress (AOC) will also be supporting SILMO Singapore by disseminating the information to their ASEAN country members.
“The Singapore Optometric Association is proud to support the inaugural SILMO Singapore. SILMO Singapore, the leading tradeshow and congress in the optical industry, will help converge the optical industry stakeholders to network and share knowledge in helping to promote the role of optometry as a primary eyecare profession,” said SOA president Mr Ken Tong.
Mr Vinod Daniel, CEO of IVI, said SILMO Singapore will be an exciting and informative event for anyone involved in ophthalmic business.
“Doubly so as it is an in-person event, and one that would be of great benefit to the region as it deals with the burden of growing myopia,” he added.
