CENTREX - PIPT
CENTREX International Exhibition Statistics Union, established in 1997, has played a key role for years in building transparency and credibility of statistical data in the trade fair industry of Central and Eastern Europe. The organization is known not only for auditing and certifying trade fair data, but also for promoting trade fairs as an effective direct marketing tool in the region.
In 2025, CENTREX continues its activities under the auspices of the Polish Chamber of Exhibition Industry, as CENTREX-PIPT. This step means not only the continuation of CENTREX's mission, but also its further development under the wings of an organization that has been actively involved in the development and representation of the trade fair industry for years.
PIPT has taken over the full know-how of the organization, knowledge base and support of experienced auditors – Karoly Nagy and Ildiko Molnar. CENTREX, as a member of UFI – The Global Association of the Exhibition Industry – remains a recognizable and valued brand whose mission and experience gain new development opportunities.
The new auditing team, created jointly by experts from CENTREX, PIPT and other industry specialists, will be responsible for independent audits of trade fairs in Central and Eastern Europe. The goal remains unchanged to provide reliable, comparable and transparent data that supports the professionalization of the industry and builds trust among organizers, exhibitors and international institutions.
