EMO to remain in Hannover
EMO, the world’s leading trade fair for production technology, is set to remain in Hannover. This was decided by the VDW Executive Board at its autumn meeting on 27th November.
“We are delighted to have arrived at a decision which represents a viable solution for the future,” said EMO General Commissioner Carl Martin Welcker. “We were convinced by the commitment of the Lower Saxon policymakers to develop the structural and technical infrastructure of the exhibition center on an ongoing basis over the coming years. This will enable the site to meet all modern-day requirements. It will also allow us to continue developing the EMO concept in our long-standing and proven partnership with Deutsche Messe and thus offer the best possible prospects for exhibitors and visitors,” Welcker continued.
In consultation with the European association Cecimo, owner of the EMO brand, and with the Italian sister association Ucimu, organizer of the EMO in Milan, the VDW has agreed the locations of the EMO cycle until 2031. The trade fair will take place in Milan in 2027, Hannover in 2029 and Milan again in 2031. “After that, we will return to the tried and tested cycle,” concluded Welcker.
