IFAT revolves around state-of-the-art know-how—just one of the reasons it is so popular among visitors. As a result, it offers you a number of opportunities to network at the international level. Whether it comes to comparing specific interests, discovering new contacts or establishing promising business ties: this is the place to discuss everything with everyone.

Thanks to its unique programme of supporting events, IFAT is a trade fair of opinions, findings, experiences and visions. The forums are platforms for company presentations, panel discussions, country specials, technical discussions and special events. Trade associations and manufacturers will hold practice-oriented live demonstrations of machines and systems at the open-air site.

The thing that makes the events programme so impressive is the extraordinarily wide range of topics that it covers. Thanks to experienced professionals, key domestic and international trade associations, government agencies and ministries, IFAT will be an international industry event again in 2012. This trade fair is like no other event of its kind because it opens up new perspectives and points of view that are groundbreaking for trade-fair participants and market players alike.
