FIAA 20th anniversary to be a global event

The International Bus and Coach Trade Fair, FIAA, is celebrating its 20th anniversary at its 2012 edition. Overall, there have been 10 editions of this internationally successful event, which has become a point of reference for industry professionals in the Iberian and European markets alike.

To mark this anniversary, the event organisers have put together an exhibition as part of FIAA 2012 from October 23 to 26 which will look back over some of the most emblematic moments of each of its ten editions.

FIAA began in 1992 in response to a demand from the business community and road transport associations, with the aim of becoming a global and comprehensive event within the industry. Since then, it has grown along with the sector.

It has been host to the principal milestones within the industry and has witnessed the evolution of a sector that has proved to be very important in the development of the Spanish economy.

Two decades on, FIAA reflects the confidence demonstrated by the sector in this event, by bringing together the main representatives of chassis manufacturing, coachbuilding and associated industries within the bus and coach sector, and by receiving the support of its main organisations – ANETRA, ASCABUS, ASINTRA, ATUC, FENEBÚS and TU.
