“ It is always a challenge to find a first-class event venue for our European Dealer Convention. At Messe Friedrichshafen this was easy right from the start. Its proximity to the airport, the numerous inexpensive hotels in the city, the scope for side events and of course the convention rooms themselves far exceeded our expectations.”david mcewen-smith, service and technical manager Claas uk ltd.

“ Located at the interface of four key markets, namely Southern Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Northern Italy, we have held the FAKUMA – the International Trade Fair for Plastics Processing – for more than 30 years. Again and again, Friedrichshafen’s warm and welcoming atmosphere and the trade-fair team’s high professional standards are repeatedly a source of inspiration for our exhibitors, visitors and ourselves as guest organisers. This is the point at which the conditions for successful business transactions converge.”
