Dear exhibitors,
Dear visitors,

I regret to state that as a result of extraordinary measures issued by the Ministry of Health of the Czech Republic, since March up to now, it is impossible for trade fairs, congresses, concerts, corporate and other events that the Brno Exhibition Center normally organizes or hosts, to be held. The set rules and conditions for trade fairs, such as limiting the number of persons attending a show or dividing the trade fair into separate sectors, completely contradict the essence and logistics of a trade show. As a responsible company, we have decided to cancel the planned trade fairs, including the TECHAGRO and the International Engineering Fair, in advance, rather than trying to hold them at any cost, with uncertain results and circumventing the rules.

 
We disagree with the inclusion of trade fairs in the category of mass events, as the B2B trade fairs we mainly organize are no different from the logistics and attendance of shopping malls. We have at our disposal technically advanced exhibition halls and an extensive exhibition center, which allows a sufficient social distancing of participants in any event, as well as technically advanced online systems, including online registrations or payments. Based on the exchange of experience between international trade fair administrations, we have prepared a proposal for a set of hygiene and safety measures, which we consider sufficient for holding safe trade fairs events.

 
Despite all our efforts, the proposals for hygienic and safety measures for trade fairs have not yet been accepted or discussed with us since the spring. This is probably because the importance of trade fairs and congresses is not appreciated. Trade fairs, scientific and professional congresses, and corporate events create space for the emergence of new opportunities, the presentation of innovations, the exchange of ideas and thus contribute to the business and cultural development of society. They are an important part of the knowledge economy and a necessary tool for the development of the economy, industry and other fields. Trade fairs and congresses, however, are based on personal contact, which is now regrettably prohibited.

 
We firmly believe that the development of the situation will allow the planned fairs, exhibitions, congresses and other events to be held in 2021. We firmly believe that after the end of the currently unfavorable situation, the hygiene rules will be discussed with us so that together with you we will be able to intensively prepare planned events. Holding these events is in the interest of the prosperity of the economy and your companies.

 
Thanking you for your support I look forward to meeting you at the fairs in 2021.

 
 
Jiří Kuliš, CEO/Member of the Board

The IMT International Machine Tools Exhibition has been held concurrently with MSV in even years since 1998. As the largest event of its kind in Central and Eastern Europe, it is organized with the support of CECIMO, the European Association of the Machine Tool Industry.

467 exhibiting companies from 18 countries attended the last IMT in 2018, with 54% coming from abroad – mostly from Germany and Italy. Almost one half of the exhibitors represented metalworking machines, followed by precision tools and forming machines.

WELDING has been held at the Brno Exhibition Centre since 1969. In 2018, there were 86 exhibiting companies from 10 countries participating, with more than one half of them from abroad. These figures have put WELDING in the position of the most important specialized welding technology expo in Central Europe.

WELDING, with the participation of all leading companies in this industry, is a proven opportunity to present all technological innovations and more complex services to customers. Almost one third of exhibitors present themselves in the field of machines and equipment for flame welding, oxy-fuel and arc cutting. A large number of companies are featured, which also have additional auxiliary materials, components, machines and equipment for other welding, as well as robots, manipulators and accessories for welding.

WELDING is held concurrently with the MSV International Engineering Fair and the IMT, FOND-EX, PROFINTECH and PLASTEX technology fairs.

The FOND-EX International Foundry Fair is an evergreen in the Brno's expo calendar. It has been held here since 1972, today as the third largest specialized foundry fair in the world and clearly the most important on the Central European market. Last year, 55 companies from 10 countries participated, of which almost one half were from abroad.

FOND-EX is a place where foundry and modelling professionals from all over the region come to explore new machines and equipment and learn about advanced technologies and materials. This position implies a high share of international participants.

FOND-EX is held concurrently with the MSV International Engineering Fair and the IMT, WELDING, PROFINTECH and PLASTEX technology fairs.

During the short period of its existence, the PROFINTECH International Trade Fair for Surface Technology has already achieved the position of number one on the Czech expo market in the field of surface treatment. These technologies impact on almost all fields of human activity, significantly increase the useful value of a product and thus its competitiveness on the market and its price. The justification of the specialized project was also confirmed by its last season, which was attended by 79 companies from 9 countries.

Exhibitors also appreciate the combination of the event with other technology fairs within MSV and the resulting synergy effects. Most exhibitors are suppliers of equipment for surface cleaning and treatment, followed by companies presenting equipment for painting, enamelling and powder coating. According to a survey, trade visitors to this expo are active mainly in the fields of mechanical engineering, plastics, chemical industry and automotive.
