Trade fair
SPS is growing again
After three days, the 32nd SPS ended today in Nuremberg with a significant increase in visitor numbers. The event was somewhat overshadowed by the rail strike on November 15 and 16.
For three days from November 14 to 16, the doors of the Exhibition Center Nuremberg were open to the international automation world. On a total exhibition area of 128,000 square meters, spread over 16 exhibition halls, trade visitors were able to experience a wide range of products, solutions and innovations from the field of smart and digital automation. The supporting program and the accompanying digital platform "SPS on air" were once again well received by participants.
A total of over 50,000 visitors attended the SPS this year. Despite the nationwide train drivers' strike at short notice and the resulting difficulties in traveling on local and long-distance Deutsche Bahn services, there was a significant increase in visitor numbers compared to the previous year. 1,229 exhibitors used the SPS as a presentation platform and a place for lively exchange and inspiration to meet the challenges of today with the solutions of tomorrow.
"Networked automation technology is the key to success. We are proud to have achieved such a result with this year's SPS and the figures speak for themselves. Due to the high demand from exhibiting companies, we took account of this positive development in advance by expanding the two exhibition halls 3C and 8 and this was confirmed," explains Sylke Schulz-Metzner, Vice President SPS at Mesago Messe Frankfurt.
Next year, the trade fair will take place in Nuremberg from November 12 to 14, 2024.
