At the upcoming Hannover Messe, international companies from the mechanical engineering, electrical and digital industries as well as the energy sector will present their solutions for resource-efficient, climate-neutral and resilient production from April 17 until April 21, 2023. Under the central theme of "Industrial Transformation - Making the Difference," they will show what changes industry can drive to reduce CO2 emissions noticeably and on a large scale.
Climate change, energy shortages, disrupted supply chains - these are just some of the challenges facing society and business today. Challenges that have one thing in common: Overcoming them lies in the consistent use of high technology and innovative industrial solutions. "Under the central theme 'Industrial Transformation - Making the Difference', Hannover Messe will show what difference exhibiting companies can make, what changes they are driving and what innovations they are developing, on the way to a climate-neutral industry," says Dr. Jochen Köckler, Chairman of the Board of Management of Deutsche Messe. "Corporations, SMEs, startups as well as science, politics and society are challenged together. Only by joining forces can we succeed in sustainably securing industrial production and thus our prosperity and our future, while at the same time advancing climate protection."
More than 4,000 companies from around the world will present high-tech solutions for the production and energy supply of the future. Among them are global tech companies such as Autodesk, Bosch, Capgemini, Dassault Systemes, Microsoft, Nokia, Salzgitter, Servicenow, Schneider Electric or Siemens as well as medium-sized technology leaders such as Aerzener Maschinenfabrik, Beckhoff, Block Transformatoren, Boge, GP Joule, Festo, Formlabs, Gbo Datacomp, Gfos, Harting, Ifm, Kaeser, Lapp, Pepperl+Fuchs, Phoenix Contact, Rittal, SEW-Eurodrive, Wago, Wibu or Ziehl-Abegg. Well-known research institutes such as Fraunhofer or the KIT (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) outline the industrial solutions for tomorrow and more than 300 startups from different technology fields showcase innovations with disruptive potential.
Hannover Messe comprises seven exhibition areas: Automation, Motion & Drives, Digital Ecosystems, Energy Solutions, Engineered Parts & Solutions, Future Hub, Compressed Air & Vacuum and Global Business & Markets. On display will be solutions on topics such as CO2-neutral production, resilient supply chains, Industry 4.0, artificial intelligence, platform economy, IT security, Logistics 4.0, circular economy or hydrogen and fuel cells. From the digitalization of complex production processes and the use of hydrogen to operate entire production facilities to the application of software to record and reduce the CO2 footprint, Hannover Messe offers a holistic picture of the technological possibilities for the industry of today and tomorrow.
