SwiSStech aND ProDeX: You caN relY oN twice the traDe Fair Power.
A greater range means more potential customers – and this is precisely what
SWISSTECH and PRODEX (International Exhibition for Machine Tools, Tools and Produc-
tion Measurement) are offering. You won’t find more technology and competence
anywhere else in the Swiss industrial sector. SwiSStech and ProDeX saw total trade
visitor numbers of almost 53,000 over four days in 2014! And SWISSTECH is also
well positioned in international terms: almost 20% of visitors in 2014 came from near
European neighbours.
In Basel, everything is geared to making optimum use of synergies and providing
trade visitors holding a joint trade fair ticket with an efficiently organised exhibition
experience. This has been well received: over 80% of trade visitors to SWISSTECH
and PRODEX stated that they were very satisfied with the parallel events. And you,
too, can benefit from it as an exhibitor – so book your SWISSTECH 2016 stand today on
attractive terms.

Dear exhibitors
Anyone taking part in the top trade fair for materials, components and system assembly in the German-speaking region in spite of these economically challenging times is paving the way for a positive future – not just for their own company, but for the industry as a whole. Come along to SWISSTECH and join other leading companies in showcasing your strengths and convincing thousands of trade visitors that the Swiss market has plenty of potential to offer.
As an exhibitor at SWISSTECH, you will be giving all trade visitors the chance to experience trends, innovations and prototypes – directly and in close-up. This will provide you with valuable opportuni-ties to make personal contact. And it is precisely these face-to-face discussions that are becoming ever more important in a world of increasing digitalisation because “genuine networking” is still the best way of convincing existing and potential customers on a permanent basis. And if we’re talking about convincing customers: in 2014, 29% of SWISSTECH visitors were decision-makers with budget responsibility and 21% of the trade visitors came to Basel with concrete spending intentions.
But SWISSTECH not only guarantees you interesting leads, it also offers unique cost effectiveness on the Swiss market. Because the tried and tested trade fair duo with PRODEX means that you can be sure of achieving maximum reach with a single presence.
Join us in Basel from 15 to 18 November 2016 and set a signal for a strong future. We are already working on creating optimum framework conditions for your trade fair success!
