LONDON, July 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The producers of
Hannover Messe, the world's largest manufacturing exhibition, have
just struck a cooperation agreement with the IoT M2M Council (IMC),
the largest industry group serving the "Internet of Things" sector
exclusively, to cooperate on new exhibitors and conference content.
The IMC is mandated to concentrate specifically on infrastructure
for Industrial IoT (IIoT) applications at HM, including
connectivity, platforms, and edge technology to connect industrial
devices.
The first order of business for the partnership will be in
promoting the brand new US-based IIOT event from HM organizer
Deutsche Messe AG – Digital Industries USA – to take place for the first time in
Louisville (KY) on September 11-12
2019 (www.digitalindustryusa.com). The IMC will then produce
a pavilion and conference for HM 2020 at the big show in
Hannover, featuring dedicated
floor space, on-site signage, a conference program, and of course,
joint marketing efforts from both organizations.
The HM flagship event annually attracts well over 215,000
visitors and 6,500 exhibitors to Hannover (Germany) in April. For its part, the IMC
counts 25,000 enterprise users and OEMs that buy IoT solutions as
rank-and-file members, and the group already enjoys an exclusive
relationship with the massive Consumer Electronics Show, producing
a pavilion and conference concentrating on IoT infrastructure for
OEMs in automotive, houseware, medical devices, and more.
"We think foundational alliances with the world's largest
manufacturing event and the world's largest consumer electronics
event position us well to accomplish the IMC mission – accelerate
the adoption of IoT technology by bringing buyers and sellers
together," says Volkhard Bregulla,
IMC Chairman and VP of Global Manufacturing, Automotive, and IoT at
HPE. "Both events attract IoT adopters in large numbers, which
makes them unique and very attractive in combination."
The fast-approaching Digital Industries USA event will include exhibition areas for
Analytics/Cloud, Production Efficiency, Additive manufacturing and
3D Printing, Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, and Security, and
has already attracted cornerstone exhibitors in Microsoft and
Siemens. IMC Sustaining companies will be offered the opportunity
to speak at the new event on a variety of subjects.
