As well as finding out about innovative products and technologies, visitors – around 68 per cent of whom are decision-makers – use the trade fair to hold targeted discussions and forge new business relationships. In a press release, the Managing Director of Messe Stuttgart noted that it had become clear that the AMB is not only a forum for discussion, but also a place where investments are made and decisions taken.

Another highlight was the presentation of the AMB Award. Awards were presented in six categories, along with two special prizes.

The jury’s special prize was awarded to Paul Horn GmbH, a company that works closely with the management institution within our network, GfE Schmalkalden.
