Inhorgenta organisers hopeful for 2021 trade show
Organisers of German trade show 'Inhorgenta' said that they are optimistic for the 2021 event due to be held from February19-22, 2021 at the Messe München Exhibition Center.
Klaus Dittrich, chairman and chief executive of Messe München said, “We want our trade fair to be a momentum generator for the industry and a reliable partner during tough times. Inhorgenta Munich is a powerful force that can provide the industry with additional verve and drive in this situation.”
Due to lockdown procedures including travel restrictions and social distancing measures, a number of trade shows have been cancelled or postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, including Baselworld and International Jewellery London (IJL). IJL had been set to move venue this year and had announced a major relocation to Alexandra Palace in light of refurbishment works at its former venue, London Olympia.
Commenting on Inhorgenta’s strategy, Stefanie Mändlein, exhibition director of Inhorgenta Munich, added, “We are determined to be the leading international trade fair for the entire industry."
“Personal contact with exhibitors, visitors and industry experts are one of my top priorities because their feedback enables me to get a feel for their needs. We draw on this knowledge to develop our own concepts and offerings. We can then provide all brands with first-class conditions for their trade fair exhibitions.”
The annual show comprises six halls and features trade exhibitors from sectors including jewellery, timepieces, gemstones, new designers, production and technology. This year, companies from 44 countries exhibited, with visitors from 85 countries attending.
“In addition to the exhibition’s key figures, the inviting and personal atmosphere of Inhorgenta Munich serves as a guarantee for the trade fair’s success,” Mändlein said.
Anja Heiden, a member of the management board of Gerhard D Wempe, said: “You will not find a comparable trade fair anywhere else in Europe. For this reason, Inhorgenta Munich will certainly be the place to be for me in 2021.”
Martin Julier, head of Gemlab at Bucherer, added, “The combination of comprehensive service and warm hospitality—this is something unique, and you won’t find another jewelry trade fair like it.”
