The record edition that revived the enthusiasm for revolution
The final figures endorse the success of the 23rd edition of Madrid Fusión Alimentos de España, which closed with the largest number of conference attendees (1,874), visitors (26,104) and exhibiting companies (232) in its history. (232) more important in its history. But the edition that paid tribute to the chefs who grew up in the currents opened with the culinary revolution that began at least thirty years ago in Spain has stood out above all for the quality of the contents on its six stages, which were packed for most of the presentations. It was also the most international edition, with the presence of visitors from 63 countries, and with the largest presence of chefs in the 23 years.
