Organized by the passionate and seasoned diver Stefan Panis, this event on 7th and 8th December 2024 promises to be an unforgettable experience for all underwater adventurers.
Stefan Panis’s journey into the depths began at the tender age of 6, when he took his first dive with his father. Since then, he has immersed himself in countless underwater excursions, honing his skills as a technical diver, wreck diver, and cave explorer. With a lifelong love for the sea, Panis is the perfect steward for an event like this.
DiveXpo 2024 traces its origins back to the Tekdive Shows in Antwerp, where Panis played a pivotal role in leading the way. In 2019, fueled by a desire to innovate and expand, Panis and his dedicated team introduced “Tec-Expo” to the diving community. This groundbreaking fair was designed to be inclusive, affordable, and brimming with exciting opportunities for divers of all backgrounds.
Following the success of its initial trial run, where valuable feedback poured in from exhibitors, visitors, and speakers alike, it became clear that there was a growing demand for a more accessible diving expo. Enter DiveXpo 2024, the culmination of years of experience and insight from the diving community.
One of the key findings from the feedback was the vibrant interest among novice divers in mastering essential skills such as swimming techniques, buoyancy control, and equipment knowledge. Respondents also expressed a desire for a more approachable platform to explore the world of technical diving.
In response to these insights, DiveXpo 2024 aims to lower the barrier of entry for divers of all levels. With an array of engaging workshops, enlightening lectures, and a captivating exhibition space, this event promises something for everyone. Whether you’re a seasoned veteran or just dipping your toes into the world of diving, DiveXpo 2024 invites you to embark on a journey of discovery beneath the waves.
