The resumption of the direct air connection between Valencia and New York, scheduled for June 2027, has been met with optimism by Feria Valencia. The institution believes this new route transcends tourism and represents a significant opportunity to strengthen economic and business ties between the United States, the Valencian Community, and the Spanish industry as a whole.
According to Feria Valencia, having a direct connection with one of the world's leading economic centers will facilitate access to the North American market for Spanish companies, fostering new commercial relationships, investments, and strategic alliances. This will also allow for an increased presence of buyers, importers, distributors, and investors from the United States at various trade fairs.
The trade fair institution views this new connectivity as a key element in reinforcing its role as a meeting point between Spanish industry and international markets, creating a business bridge between America and Europe. The goal is to enable companies from both continents to establish relationships and develop new business opportunities in Valencia.
The general director of Feria Valencia, Mariano Clemente, highlighted the importance of leveraging this new scenario. "We must intensify our internationalization strategy and turn this new connectivity into real opportunities for our companies," he stated.
In this regard, Feria Valencia will enhance its commercial activities in the North American market. It will collaborate with institutions, business associations, and sectors represented at its events to develop specific promotional actions, aiming to attract buyers, investors, distributors, and influencers from the United States. The objective is to foster new opportunities for the Valencian and Spanish industry.
Clemente also emphasized that "the Valencia–New York connection does not just bring two cities closer. It brings companies, markets, investment, and talent closer. We have the opportunity to build a new business bridge between the United States and Europe, and we must seize it."
For Feria Valencia, this new connection represents an opportunity to consolidate its role as an international business platform, serving companies and productive sectors, and to strengthen Valencia's position as a business hub between Europe and America.
