As you have already noticed, the board of SEPAWA® e.V. has decided to hold the SEPAWA® CONGRESS 2021 exclusively on a virtual basis.
The experiences with a virtual event in 2020 were very good. The platform was rated positively throughout by the participants. In the meantime, the system has been continuously improved by the manufacturer and provided with new functions. Especially in the area of the virtual exhibition, decisive innovations have been added with a wide range of possibilities for exhibitors.

COVID-19 will continue to be a major problem for organisers in 2021. Due to the uncertainties of the current situation and future developments, the board of SEPAWA® e.V. has decided to hold the SEPAWA® CONGRESS 2021 exclusively virtually.
We hope that you will remain loyal to us in 2021 and look forward to a live event in 2022.

… a pretty crazy year for all of us. Covid-19 forced us all to be very flexible and to react on rapidly changing circumstances. We asked a lot from our visitors, speakers and exhibitors. To switch over to a completely virtual event within only 2,5 weeks was more than a challenge.
With our first SEPAWA® CONGRESS VIRTUAL we walked a new way and despite all obstacles with a very satisfying result.

Dear attendees, for 66 years the SEPAWA® CONGRESS has been a continuous success story. Now a pandemic with its consequences has seized the world and our congress is not spared. The rapid recent developments of Covid-19 infections in Berlin and the consequences that parts of Berlin – such as the district Neukölln, where the ECC ESTREL Convention Center is located – have been declared risk areas and hotspots, have prompted the SEPAWA® Executive Board to reassess the situation.
Although the ECC ESTREL Congress Centre is able to comply with all current hygiene regulations, the health and safety of our members and friends is certainly more important than any congress. Furthermore, we want to avoid that returnees from Berlin might have to go into quarantine. These regulations in Schleswig-Holstein and Rheinland-Pfalz – and possibly in the future other federal states – as well as entry restrictions from countries that have or are risk areas, led to a massive wave of cancellations by our exhibitors in the last few days.
It is to be feared that this situation will worsen in the near future. As a result, a sustainable and successful live congress 2020 in Berlin would no longer be possible, which we very much regret.
The SEPAWA® board has therefore decided, despite considerable economic losses and costs, to hold the 67th SEPAWA® CONGRESS exclusively virtually. Nearly all presentations and exhibitors can be visited on the virtual platform. You will receive further information about this shortly and also on our website you will find information about the online congress.
We ask our members and friends to support this virtual congress with their participation and make it a success within the circumstances. In the past the non-profit SEPAWA® e.V. has contributed significantly to the effective exchange and networking of our members and congress participants and has also financially supported and promoted many projects for further education and training. This remains the goal of our association.
We hope that you will continue to remain loyal to us with your support and look forward to a live reunion in 2021.
Your SEPAWA® Board

The wait is over: Online registration for this year’s SEPAWA® CONGRESS HYBRID 2020 is now open.
Each onsite ticket also allows you access to the virtual version of the SEPAWA® CONGRESS. This year there is also the possibility to participate in the congress via internet only. This is possible on all browser-based devices. We recommend desktop or tablet. With mobile devices such as mobile phone or tablet, you can additionally use the SEPAWA 2020 App as a registered participant.
No onsite registration possible.
This year, due to the current situation, it will not be possible to purchase the ticket upon registration. We therefore ask you to complete and pay for your ticket well in advance via the online registration. You will then receive the entrance badge by email and bring it with you, preferably already printed out. Badge holders and lanyards will be available for you on site.
Thanks a lot!

Sorry, we have kept you waiting, but now it’s time – we present our new digital platform in a small manual. There you can find out more about your possibilities and where you can find the individual tools.
Whether it’s a lecture, a trade fair stand or new networking options such as our Matchmaking or Networking Carrousel, we make it easier for you to make new contacts. Chat with other participants and take part in video calls, note down details about your conversation partner in the notes and use your contacts for follow-up after the event. Our new digital platform in combination with our SEPAWA® CONGRESS App offers you this and many more possibilities.
But this is not all:
We say YES to a live event in combination with a digital platform. Face-to-face and virtual. This hybrid event combines security and communication in a new form. That is our goal! Visit the premiere of the SEPAWA® CONGRESS HYBRID.

2020 will be a historic year for the global community. Never before has a virus changed the world`s affairs this dramatically. Events and B2B congresses are affected and their character will change for the immediate future.
The SEPAWA® organizing team has already implemented a number of innovative steps to make this event safe for our delegates and enable a multitude to participate online.
The first SEPAWA® CONGRESS HYBRID may be a stepping stone for a new concept of B2B meetings. And you as our exhibitors are part of this revolution and will gain first hand experience!
To make the 67th SEPAWA® CONGRESS even more secure for the health of all participants, we had to draw a new floor plan with wider walkways, greater distances and defined one-way traffic.
Please find attached this revised plan. We have preassigned your position and kindly ask for understanding that in this situation a free selection cannot be offered.
We are all looking forward to having you with us in Berlin for this premiere event!

We are 100% sure that face to face meetings will return and be part of our private and business life. There is nothing that can replace sitting at an exhibition booth having a conversation or listening to a presentation and feel the vibes in the auditorium.
With very little opportunity to meet in person until now, the upcoming SEPAWA® CONGRESS in Berlin will become the highlight for the Home – & Personal Care industry. The SEPAWA® CONGRESS is the platform to introduce the innovations and to present them to clients. And many will want to attend to get first-hand information and experience face to face meetings with peers and find ad-hoc conversations leading to business opportunities.
