Reindustrialization of the United States China’s export subsidies. Transitioning to a sustainable digital industrial sector in Europe. Competition between industries and nations is intensifying. Those who make the right decisions now will secure their place at the forefront in the future. And next April’s Hannover Messe will be an important driving force in this context. Visitors from industry, politics and science will see first-hand how current challenges can be turned into opportunities.
Hannover. “We are at a historic crossroads,” says Dr. Jochen Köckler, Chairman of the Deutsche Messe Managing Board. “The current global environment is shaping future industrial power structures.”
If we look at the current state of the automobile industry, we can see that the international situation as a whole is forcing not only individual manufacturing companies, but also developed countries as a whole, to fundamentally reconsider their strategies. Keckler: “Whether it is in the US, Asia or Europe, further investments are urgently needed in the digitalisation, automation and electrification of industry. Only in this way can we become competitive and sustainable. You can harmonize your sexuality.”
Under the motto “Industrial Transformation – Activating Sustainable Industries”, around 5,000 companies from the mechanical engineering, electrical, digital industry and energy sectors will be showcasing their solutions for the production and energy supply of the future. Artificial intelligence will play a key role here. Keckler: “Artificial intelligence will revolutionize the entire value chain of manufacturing companies, thereby significantly increasing their competitiveness.”
Exhibitors include global technology giants such as Bosch, Google, Microsoft, Schneider Electric and Siemens, as well as smaller companies such as Beckhoff, Festo, HARTING, ifm, LAPP, Phoenix Contact, Rittal, Schaeffler and SEW. Includes segment technology leaders. . Renowned research institutes such as Fraunhofer and KIT (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) will outline tomorrow’s industrial solutions, while more than 300 start-ups from various technology fields will showcase innovations with disruptive potential. .
From the digitalization of complex production processes and the use of hydrogen to run entire production plants to the application of AI to optimize production processes, Hannover Messe is committed to leveraging the technological possibilities of the industry today and tomorrow. We present an overall picture of The focus here is on the interaction of robotics, artificial intelligence, drive technologies, sovereign data spaces (Manufacturing X), renewable energy, hydrogen, and a host of other technologies, including the industrial metaverse.
“What makes Hannover Messe unique is our emphasis on connections with decision-makers at all levels,” says Dr. Jochen Köckler. “Whether you are a production manager looking for new robotics solutions to automate your factory or a managing director who wants to pave the way for a digital future for your entire company, contact us at Hannover Messe It’s about both specific solutions and comprehensive transformation of the entire company, with a constant focus on competitiveness.”
“However, competitiveness also depends on the prevailing political climate,” Keckler emphasizes. This is exactly where he sees Hannover Messe’s further strengths. “We have consistently been a bridge between the business world and politics.” It is more than just an exchange of ideas, knowledge and information. In Hannover, politicians can experience first-hand how technology can drive efficiency, sustainability, competitiveness and prosperity. And not only at the German and European level, but also globally, including in Canada, which is a partner country for the Hannover Messe in 2025.
“With Canada as our partner country, we have gained a strong and innovative partner who is a leader in digitalization and renewable energy and a reliable geopolitical partner who perfectly fits the concept of the event.” added Koechler.
As a Partner Country in 2025, Canada will strengthen its relationship with Europe and build partnerships between Canadian and global businesses focused on digital technology, industrial transformation, and robust supply chains. At Hannover Messe 2025, Canada will be joined by more than 200 Canadian companies from the fields of artificial intelligence, automation, clean technology, electromobility, hydrogen and robotics.
Hannover Messe
Hannover Messe is one of the world’s leading industrial trade fairs. With the main theme of “Industrial Transformation”, around 5,000 exhibitors from the mechanical engineering, electrical, digital industry and energy sectors will gather to present solutions for current and future production and energy supply. The main exhibition areas in 2025 are smart manufacturing, digital ecosystems, industrial energy, compressed air and vacuum technology, engineering components and solutions, future hubs, and international trade and investment. A conference program with approximately 1,600 speakers will complement the program. The next edition will be held in Hannover from March 31st to April 4th, 2025. Canada is a partner country.
