International Industrial Fair

Technological innovations were presented at the Brno Exhibition Centre by 1,386 exhibiting companies from 42 countries around the world. During four days of the expo, their stands were seen by more than 55 thousand visitors, mainly technicians and businesspeople who need to introduce innovation into practice rather quickly. 

The 66th edition of the MSV International Industrial Fair will take place at the Brno Exhibition Centre from 7 to 10 October 2025. It will present industrial innovations and the latest trends across industries to its visitors. Its key topics will include automation, robotics, digitalisation, the use of artificial intelligence, additive manufacturing and energy efficiency. This year, MSV is being held together with the International Fair for Transport and Logistics. Exhibitors can get the best prices for their participation in the expo until 31 March 2025 only.

The 65th anniversary edition of the International Engineering Fair is successfully over and its evaluation is complete.

The traditional manufacturer of metal band saws also presented a high-speed circular saw for the first time in Hall V. Another machine on display - the 540 HORIZONT X double-column band saw - won one of the three premiere MSV Industrial Design Awards.

Design Centrum CzechTrade, the national platform for state support of design and guarantor for the design sector, announced the first ever Industrial Design Award at the International Industrial Fair in Brno. The award ceremony took place on 9 October 2024 in the unique SONO music club.

CyberSecurity Hub is an expert organisation for cyber security founded by three universities: the Masaryk University, the Czech Technical University in Prague and the Brno University of Technology.

The Rotunda, full of exhibitors and VIP guests, heard seven speeches and was also the venue for the MSV 2024 Gold Medal award ceremony.

Petr Pavel, President of the Czech Republic, set aside at least a few hours in his busy schedule to visit the MSV. His trip to Brno before visiting the exhibition centre included a meeting at the headquarters of the National Cyber and Information Security Agency, where he learned about the current challenges in the area of cyber security. This is, of course, a hot topic for the International Industrial Fair, which this year deals with similar topics.

The International Industrial Fair is the most important Central European industrial fair, which every year presents many novelties as indicators of innovation in industry, but it is also an important platform for business. Its 65th anniversary edition was also attended by the following personalities: Czech PM Petr Fiala, new Minister of Industry and Trade Lukáš Vlček, Minister of Transport Martin Kupka, Minister of the Environment Petr Hladík, President of the Confederation of Industry of the Czech Republic Jan Rafaj and a number of other guests, who together went to visit selected stands.
