Fachpack will take place in line with its regular schedule from 28 to 30 September 2021. “Current registration numbers are extremely satisfactory given the pandemic situation. We are expecting 1,300 exhibitors, primarily from Central Europe,” says Heike Slotta, executive director at NürnbergMesse. “In the course of conversations with our customers from the packaging industry, we have noticed how much they are longing to finally meet again in person at a trade fair, especially after all the relevant fairs for the packaging industry scheduled for spring 2021 were canceled. We will do everything in our power to host a safe Fachpack in late summer 2021,” she adds.
Fachpack goes digital
In future, Fachpack will also extend its reach into the digital environment. In recent months, NürnbergMesse has had a lot of positive experience with virtual and hybrid (partly on-site and partly virtual) event formats. What this specifically means for Fachpack is that presentations at the event will be streamed to the internet where they can also subsequently be downloaded. Alongside the face-to-face contact options at the exhibition stands, virtual matchmaking tools will also be offered at the event. This allows contacts to be made and appointments arranged ahead of the event. Digital tools can also be used to facilitate the search for suitable packaging solutions that meet customer requirements.
