IAMD Hannover Fair 2018:
Reserve Your Participation NOW and Guarantee the Best Options on Booth Sizes
and Positioning for Your Company

Deutsche Messe has picked-up on the current trend towards industrial total solutions and announced that the Industrial Automation and the MDA (Motion, Drives & Automation) industry fairs will become ONE SINGLE, YEARLY EVENT as of 2018: IAMD - Integrated Automation, Motion & Drives Events Worldwide.

The EPTDA is ready to face the change by increasing its presence in Hannover to an yearly basis (instead of once every two years), and by offering an improved, turn-key solution to its Joint Pavilion participants, eventually also with smaller booths sizes upon request, additional services and attractive pricing. We expect the first rough floor plan of the hall and stand location for the EPTDA Pavilion to become available most likely at the end of August. Therefore please expect further news at that time.

Please contact the EPTDA Bureau at a.dumitrescu@eptda.org in order to reserve NOW your participation at the 2018 IAMD Hannover Fair and guarantee the best options on booths sizes and positioning for your company.

The Latest From the EPTDA
Bi-Monthly Economic Report

The latest issue of the EPTDA Bi-Monthly Economic Report is advising that Western Europe industrial production is generally in a slower growth trend. On the other hand, Poland will be a bright spot in the European economy.

Despite slowing wage growth, Europe retail sales are accelerating, up 3.3% year over year. The food industry seems to be an area of opportunity during the coming quarters, as Europe food production is likely to avoid recession through 2018. Europe machinery production is accelerating as well.

Finally, please look out for growth opportunities in construction. Important to mention is also that the consumer will be the engine that drives growth in the European economy into 2018.
