The 24th edition of REAS, scheduled from 3 to 5 October 2025 at the Centro Fiera Montichiari (BS), will be a moment of meeting, discussion and technical analysis for Institutions, State Bodies and associations that are an active part of the national emergency management protocol.

One of the key sectors is forest fire prevention. Due to its geographical conformation and the negative consequences of climate change, Italy pays specific attention to the monitoring, prevention and extinguishing of forest fires.

The appointment with the AIB Round Table, promoted by the magazine “La Protezione Civile Italiana” and coordinated by the director Franco Pasargiklian, is therefore confirmed for Saturday 4 October. In the AIB pavilion, institutional representatives, analysts and experts will be present who will have the opportunity to take stock of the summer prevention, monitoring and intervention activities, discussing the future of forest fire prevention, in light of the technological innovations and investments already planned.

The appointment with REAS is a moment of discussion between State Bodies, entities, groups and associations that are an active part of the national emergency management protocol. Each edition of the fair therefore becomes an opportunity for discussion and debate but also an effective tool for training and technology transfer.

The conference proposal is a fundamental component of REAS because it allows operators and volunteers present at the fair to delve into concrete aspects of their operational activity.

On Friday 3 October, on the opening day, REAS will host the conference entitled “The Mobile Column of Local Authorities for Administrative Continuity – Emergency Interventions, Characteristics and Developments” promoted by ANCI. The technical meeting will be an opportunity to delve into key issues for civil protection activities. The detailed program will be available soon.

Emergency management requires increasingly integrated skills, in which it is necessary to coordinate each area of ​​intervention as best as possible. First aid is an activity in which technological innovation, the quality of devices and, above all, staff training are increasingly important. The 2025 edition of “REAS”, scheduled from 3 to 5 October at Centro Fiera Montichiari (BS), has first aid as one of the macro-sectors that, together with fire prevention, civil protection and safety at work, make up the exhibition offer. At the fair, therefore, it is possible to evaluate a wide range of ambulances and rescue vehicles, with tailor-made customizations that allow organizations, groups and associations to find ad hoc solutions for each type of service.

“The qualified presence of the ambulance sector is one of the jewels in the crown of REAS”, explains Ezio Zorzi, director of Centro Fiera Montichiari. “Since its first editions, the show has been the event where rescue workers and volunteers can get a close-up look at the types of vehicles they use in the field, evaluating technological innovations and customizations, in close contact with the most important production and commercial entities in the sector.”

A fundamental component of the first aid sector is the one that focuses specifically on aids for people with disabilities. In fact, assistance and service activities benefit greatly from the latest generation devices and technological solutions that allow the standards of rescue activities to be raised, but also of daily assistance.

It is no coincidence that more and more exhibitors are choosing the Montichiari event to present special vehicles and innovative solutions for those who work in first aid and transport, but also for families involved in assistance activities on a daily basis. The added value of the fair is that of direct contact, with the possibility of receiving initial advice and evaluating all the options that the market offers.

The October edition, in fact, will provide the opportunity to take stock of special setups for ambulances and medical cars. The interlocutors are the operators of voluntary organizations, as well as the competent bodies for social policies, but also families and individuals who need to adopt specific solutions. The visit to the fair is also a real training event, to stay up to date on technological evolution and the latest generation devices.

“REAS is a complete event with an exhibition offering that covers all areas of emergency management,” concludes director Zorzi. “For the first aid sector and aids for people with disabilities, as well as for the other exhibition macro-sectors, the goal is specialization.”
