Expo to exchange Olympic know-how
The World Winter Sports Expo will highlight exchanges in Olympic legacies and promoting mass participation at its third assembly in Beijing next month.
From skiing simulators that offer immersive experiences on dry surfaces to high-tech winter sports gear and resort tours through VR goggles, the third edition of the international exposition will thrill visitors with the newest winter sports equipment, services and events from Sept 19 to 22 at the China National Convention Center, organizers said on Tuesday.
The expo, which was launched in 2016, one year after Beijing won the bid for the 2022 Winter Olympic Games, will focus on enlightening the host in key areas, such as the post-Olympics operation of facilities and promotion of mass winter sports participation this year through exhibits, presentations and brainstorming forums featuring international experts.
