Optimistic data in the industry are a good forecast for the fair

"Polish industry is gaining momentum",’ "Surprising data show growing optimism", "New data from Polish industry". Optimism at the highest level since February 2022","Industrial production is back on the growth path" – these and similar titles appeared in the December press after reading the latest PMI data (Purchasing Managers Index).

-The PMI index jumped unexpectedly to levels last seen in April 2022. The sector has reached a turning point – said experts from S&P Global, which publishes PMI data. This indicator, which measures the opinions of purchasing managers in two hundred Polish industrial companies, increased to 48.7 points in November compared to 44.5 points recorded a month earlier, S&P Global reported. The number of new orders recorded the largest increase in the history of the survey. It is not without reason that the mood regarding future production has improved significantly.

- We are very happy with this revival, conversations with our exhibitors also fill us with optimism and give us a lot of energy to work on the next edition. We have ambitious plans, we must meet the market needs. That is why we are strongly developing this part of the exhibition, the potential of which – in our opinion – has not yet been sufficiently exploited. Hence, among others our advanced conversations with automation leaders. We will also take care of an extensive offer of metal processing machines – announces Anna Lemańska-Kramer, director of the ITM INDUSTRY EUROPE fair.

Today, industrial automation solutions are an integral part of virtually all production processes and largely determine the development of the global industry. The need to develop automation in Polish companies results from the desire to increase competitiveness, improve working conditions, sustainable development and adaptation to the dynamically changing business environment. Research and innovation in this area are crucial to achieving economic success and maintaining high quality production. Hence the plans of the organisers of the ITM INDUSTRY EUROPE fair to expand the offer of this sector in the exhibition zone.

Live Testing

A novelty in the next edition will also be special test zones for specific automation solutions for Industry 4.0. This is where you will be able to check live products and technologies supporting production processes in factories.

Thanks to this, fair participants will learn new skills and will also take advantage of the opportunity to test solutions that can significantly improve the efficiency of their enterprises.

- Our idea is to enable the initial ‘tailoring’ of a product to a specific recipient. The fair is a good place to connect producers of such solutions with their potential customers, who will be able to test them in our spaces and see whether such innovations will be appropriate support for their companies – adds Anna Lemańska-Kramer.

The fair will also feature extensive exhibitions in the field of robotics, foundry, welding, surface treatment and software for the industrial sector.
