Broader visitor target group through construction at TechniShow

The biennial exhibition takes place in Royal Jaarbeurs Utrecht and is the largest event of its kind in the Benelux. The core target group of ESEF Maakindustrie are OEM companies, product developers and buyers. What is new is the move to the TechniShow exhibition floor to encourage chain cooperation. It creates a free overflow with visitors to the largest trade fair for industrial production technology. This offers exhibitors an even wider reach across the manufacturing industry.

NEW: Additional segments

The exhibition floor of TechniShow and ESEF Maakindustrie will have a new layout. We are introducing a new exhibition layout with more focus on positioning based on the role within the chain and innovative contribution to the manufacturing industry. In concrete terms, this means more focus on integrated production chains, cross-sector applications and in-depth content via theme squares and activity programmes.
