When it comes to Amazon seller conferences, the more the merrier. So, let’s not overlook the countless expos happening on the “old continent” this year. Here is a list to help you plan for your next seller conference in Europe.
Whenever we hear about a new trade show in the USA or the UK, we make it our business to check it out. In our 2020 Amazon Seller Events Calendar, we mentioned some of the excellent seller meetups that we attend regularly. And we also brought up other events that we think deserve some attention.
But 2020 is different. It’s the first time the World Expo will come to the Middle East, and the second time the Summer Olympics will be held in Tokyo. It’s a time for change. So, we’d like to broaden our horizons too and look further afield for our conferences. And what better place to start than continental Europe?
Is it any wonder, though? Amazon Europe is booming. Germany is Amazon’s second-largest venue, according to Reuters. It raked in roughly $20bn in net sales in 2018 alone. So, it’s only right that we give credit where it’s due and try to raise the profile of the Amazon seller events across Europe too.
We may not be able to attend them all (or at all) this year. Still, we can’t help but share these exciting summits, fairs, and conferences that cater not only to local sellers, but also to merchants from across the globe. Here are some of the events Amazon sellers in Europe can attend closer to home.
