The International Engineering Fair is the most important industrial fair in Central Europe, exceeding 1 600 exhibitors and 80 000 visitors every year. More than 50 % of the exhibitors and 16 % of the visitors come from abroad.

The majority of visitors are professionals. Nearly 80 % of those in attendance exert influence on business investment, and one third form part of the top management of their firms.

All key fields of machinery and electrical engineering industry are represented, with primary focus on machining and forming.

MSV’s spotlight is Industry 4.0 and Digital Factory, i.e. digitisation in production, one of the key trends of the innovation process. Other highlighted topics include the circular economy – management of material resources. This is a current trend which is a high-priority area of sustainable development as industry and trade adaptation will move forward in that direction.

One unique component of the fair is an accompanying programme that includes specialist conferences, as well as seminars and workshops on current technical, commercial and economic issues.
