ERSI CONVENTION 2023
The 2023 edition of the ERSI Convention was held in Bologna on 12 and 13 May, in the fine setting of the Savoia Hotel Regency.
Two days alternating between technical seminars, presentation of new products, direct discussions with manufacturers and moments of conviviality.
In addition to the usual lockpicking competition for cylinders and padlocks, now in its seventh edition, there was the new "Pentathlon" category, which challenged the locksmiths on five different disciplines. Italian and foreign locksmiths took part in an exciting but friendly competition. The most experienced professionals compared their skills in different fields. Not only in their specialty but also in less practiced techniques. This all-round challenge, for the first time ever, tested the locksmiths on five different techniques, all during a single competition. The audience was thrilled.
Top professionals from all over the world took part in the Convention. Many new products were presented by our sponsoring companies, always committed to innovation. The numbers of this Convention edition confirm the sector's interest in an event with an international dimension, culturally alive and committed to the growth and improvement of the sector: the Convention welcomed 1100 visitors from 18 countries. 130 ERSI Members were present. The 50 sponsoring companies, with their 320 experts, in addition to the stands, offered visitors the opportunity to participate in 11 seminars distributed in the two days event. The restricted access area, reserved for opening equipment, was visited by over 450 locksmiths.
During these two intense days of updates and networking, visitors shared experiences, skills and innovative ideas. The event is the European reference point for the entire passive safety sector, with the presentation of new technologies, materials and techniques. Participants had the opportunity to meet colleagues from different countries, exchange ideas and develop new partnerships. Leading companies presented their latest innovations and products. The locksmiths had the opportunity to discover new technologies firsthand and to discuss directly with suppliers to better understand how these solutions can improve their work.
See you next Year!
