As the world's most important meeting of the industry for industrial technology and mechanical engineering, the Hanover Fair is to run again primarily as a face-to-face event in the coming year.
On Wednesday, Deutsche Messe AG reaffirmed corresponding plans.
However, from April 25 to 29, the exhibition will also add “a comprehensive range of digital services” for the participating companies and visitors, announced the organizers.
Hanover - In 2020 the trade fair was canceled due to the Corona crisis, this year it only ran as a digital format.
For the next edition in 2022, Portugal is coming to the capital of Lower Saxony as a partner country.
As before, the overarching topics should primarily be sustainable production and digitalization in industry.

In the opinion of trade fair boss Jochen Köckler, purely digital exhibition concepts in themselves are no substitute for physical events.
Therefore, in the spring of 2022, “personal contacts should be the focus again”, he explained.
After the experiences in the pandemic, many other trade fairs are now also relying on “hybrid” formats that combine classic and online offers.
