New responsibility for NORTEC: Messe Stuttgart and the VDW (German Machine Tool Builders' Association), Frankfurt am Main, are jointly assuming responsibility for the established event for production engineering in Hamburg. The final discussions with the previous organizer, i.e. Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH, have just been concluded.

Interested in showcasing your innovative products and technologies to a select target group? Companies will be able to do just that from 14 to 17 May 2024 at GrindingHub in Stuttgart. After successfully launching the event last year, the organizer VDW – in cooperation with Messe Stuttgart and Schleiftagung, and with the “Machine Tools” sector of Swissmem on board as institutional patron – is keen to repeat the success as it opens registration for the event.

Markus Heering has a great deal of experience with trade fairs, as he and his associations have acted as institutional patrons for the drupa, security and formnext. Other key elements of his career have been the development of VDMA activities in the field of additive manufacturing within the relevant working group and trade association, for which he will continue to be responsible.

Live, innovative and brimming with know-how – the new digital GrindingHub platform. The trade fair organizer VDW (German Machine Tool Builders' Association), in cooperation with the IndustryArena business network, offers the grinding technology industry a top-tier platform under the 360°SPECIAL brand – even in the years when no trade fair is held. On 23 May 2023, companies will have the opportunity to pitch their new products and technologies to an international online audience and make contact with potential customers. The event will be presided over by an expert moderator and also include scientific presentations on current topics.

With the deadline just two weeks away, more than 1,000 exhibitors have already registered for EMO Hannover 2023.

The new home of grinding technology, GrindingHub, celebrated its premiere in Stuttgart under the banner of "Brings solutions to the surface" from 17 to 20 May 2022. More than 370 well-known manufacturers from 23 countries presented numerous innovations across the entire grinding technology process chain at the trade fair.
