The exhibitors at HANNOVER MESSE and Deutsche Messe AG draw a consistently positive conclusion from this year’s event. The world’s leading industrial trade fair has shown that the technologies are available for competitive and climate-neutral industrial production. The next step is to use these solutions consistently.

The core topics at HANNOVER MESSE included artificial intelligence, hydrogen, energy management, networked and intelligent production, and the new manufacturing-X data ecosystem.

The industrial transformation was experienced live in the exhibition halls. On display were high-end products from the industry for climate-neutral production, new hydrogen technologies, inspiring impulses from startups for networked production processes, robots that can be operated by voice using AI, solutions for efficient energy management, and the start of the new data ecosystem Manufacturing-X, which will pave the way to digital business models, especially for medium-sized industrial companies.

More than 4,000 exhibitors presented their solutions for a digital and sustainable industry and met in Hanover to 130,000 visitors from all over the world. The five days of the trade fair have shown that the technologies for competitive and climate-neutral industrial production are available – but now we need speed and determination in implementation.
