SPS IPC Drives Adds another Successful Chapter in 2016
SPS IPC Drives 2016 is a prominent international marketplace and one of the most important year-end gatherings in the automation industry. Held this year from 22 – 24 November, the event gathered some 1, 600 exhibitors from all over the world to showcase the latest products, solutions, innovations, and trends in electrical automation technology.
This year the event was visited by over 63,000 professionals. As in the past, the strong focus on business that has become one of the hallmarks of SPS IPC Drives was clearly evident among the booths at its 27th edition. The event further solidified its international standing by featuring 523 companies from 44 countries besides Germany.
Expertise in forward-thinking technologies
At SPS IPC Drives 2016, the Industrie 4.0 Area and an array of exhibition booths highlighted concepts and examples of specific applications in related fields of automation and data exchange. Industrie 4.0 offerings were also a main reason why the forums held by industry associations VDMA and ZVEI were so popular among this year’s attendees. Here, participants had the opportunity to discuss state-of-the-art technology and ways to implement it in practice.
- We are here for the first time and we are really impressed by the scale of the exhibition and the quality of the audience. We met guys from all over the world, from Korea to Mexico, and India to Brazil. From one location you can cover most of the world, says Andrey Nikishin, Future Technologies Projects Director, Kaspersky Lab UK Ltd.
Next year’s SPS IPC Drives -event will be held from 28 – 30 November 2017 at Nuremberg’s exhibition center.
