“The organisation of the industrial exhibition was well-done. The industrial evening was attended by the Thuringian Minister of Economics and Science, Mr Tiefensee - I am pleased that the event is recognised politically.
Compared to a large industrial fair, you meet a very specialised public here, which is reflected in the intensity of the discussions.
Both location and logistics are of course super.
That's why ZwickRoell and Asmec will certainly be there again next time.”

"Well organised conference, good scope, solid content in the presentations. For me, the conference and the accompanying exhibition generated a lot of ideas on how to grow my business and professional network. As always: great content, new an old experts and really good conversations." (V 2021, Industrial Exhibitor)

"Many thanks for the successful workshop "Implants - When the answer is in the layer!" in Tuttlingen. For me and my colleagues the two days were very informative, the organization of the workshop, the speakers, but also the social program were very successful."
