Apply for Design Talents

Stand info & price

If you are selected for Design Talents, you have the opportunity to accept a stand at the fair. The stand will be ready upon your arrival at the fair equipped with a carpet, an electrical outlet, lighting on trusses, a painted wall and your marketing name in vinyl text on the wall. After this basic setup, you can decorate your stand as you wish. The stand area is 6 square meters, measuring 3×2 meters.

The registration fee is 2,195 SEK excluding VAT, and the stand rental is 5,795 SEK excluding VAT. You will only be charged if you are selected.

Selection

When selecting for Design Talents, we look at the products based on novelty value in terms of idea and form and to get a good mix of product types at the fair. The section is built in an architecturally exciting way that differs from the other stands in the hall.
If you have been accepted, you are welcome as a Design Talent at up to three fairs.

Best in Show Award

Each fair, our jury selects a winner of the Best in Show – a design award for the designer who stands out from the crowd. The winner is presented to the press on the Formex stage, and the prize includes a stand space worth SEK 15,000 for the next fair and editorial content on formex.se and in social media.
