Otherwise, we ask you to upload a meaningful document (business card, extract from the commercial register, etc.) when registering, which we will check within a maximum of 48 hours. You can continue the purchase or redemption process upon receipt of the confirmation e-mail.

The app also allows you to plan your visit to the trade fair efficiently. Here you will find the hall plan and navigation, exhibitor and product lists, the event programme and can network with other trade fair participants.
