SANA 2011: how, where, when (and why)
Sana is called a healthy person. SANA is also the international exhibition of natural products, now in its 23rd edition .
23 editions are a significant number. Editions that have allowed this country to reach a certain awareness with respect to the man-earth bond, which has now become almost an urgency, given the internal drama of climatic variations and the sense of incomprehensible lethality that rests in the way we are doing harm to the Earth .
SANA 2011, as in previous editions, takes place at the Bolognafiere center , this year on days ranging from 8 to 11 September. We remind you that the SANA portal is bilingual, English and Italian, and provides detailed information for those who are or want to become exhibitors at SANA, as well as information for SANA visitors.
