Pitti Connect

Pitti Connect is the platform that translates into a digital form all the energy, creativity, expertise, content, and communicative power of the Pitti Immagine shows.

A networking and business tool that anticipates and integrates the experience of physical fairs, allowing exhibitors to increase their visibility, communicate brands and collections effectively (with photos, videos, moodboards, press kits, and a digital catalogue accessible by authorized buyers), activate commercial contacts, schedule meetings in video chat, and monitor their online performance (page visits, requests from buyers and journalists, contact database management).

  • A limited number of staff may enter the fair free of charge; exhibitors have the right to free passes for owners and a certain number of staff depending on the stand area. Extra Pittismart can be bought. Passes can only be used by the person named on it.
