With the first post-pandemic TyreXpo Asia getting underway in a little over two months’ time, the organiser of the B2B tyre trade show shares that it can “no longer guarantee floorspace” due to overwhelming demand. It has therefore begun a waitlist for exhibitors who wish to be present when TyreXpo Asia takes place at the Marina Bay Sands Convention Centre on 8 to 10 March.
Bridgestone claims to be, together with its Webfleet fleet management solution, on a “mission to move the world towards a sustainable future of mobility.” Both will be present at IAA Transportation 2022 to showcase a portfolio of tyres, tyre-centric technologies and mobility solutions and to give fleets an opportunity to learn more about their products and data-driven mobility solutions and how they can enhance performance.
Singapore’s resurgence as a travel destination means that Tyrexpo Asia will soon return to its traditional home. Nine months out from the next planned show, organiser Tarsus Southeast Asia reports bookings from more than 100 international visitors, with half the floorspace across the three exhibition halls already occupied.
Following the successful takeover of Hella by Faurecia, the two companies made their first joint appearance at an automotive trade fair under the new, overarching umbrella brand Forvia. Hella and Faurecia, with around 150,000 employees, form the seventh-largest automotive supplier worldwide and one of the global market leaders in high-growth technology fields. At this year’s Automotive Engineering Exposition, which took place in Yokohama, Japan, from 25 to 27 May 2022 and is one of the leading industry trade fairs in the Asian region, they presented technologies for a safe, sustainable, advanced and customised mobility as part of a joint stand concept. The approximately 100 square metre stand was designed in the stylistic colours blue and white, which characterise the new brand identity of the Forvia umbrella brand. In total, around 1,000 customers, business partners and other guests visited the Forvia stand.
After its cancellation in 2020, The Tire Cologne has made a long-awaited return. The trade fair took place in its namesake city this week, and organiser Koelnmesse says the strength of the 2022 event confirms its position as the “leading international platform of the global tyre and wheel industries.”
After a four-year absence, The Tire Cologne is preparing to make a comeback in May. Continental, Falken, Hankook, Michelin and Pirelli have already signed up as exhibitors. Show organiser Koelnmesse and conceptual sponsor the German Tyre Retail and Vulcanisation Trade Association (BRV) discussed their plans at a digital press conference this morning.
COVID-19 is limbering up to cast its shadow over us for a third year, and exhibition organisers are cancelling or postponing shows scheduled for the early months of 2022. Agricultural sector fair the LAMMA Show is the latest to announce that it won’t take place on the previously announced dates.
In response to tougher local Covid measures and the ever-present risk of travel restrictions, the organiser of Agritechnica has confirmed the show’s postponement. The event scheduled to take place between 27 February and 5 March will no longer take place, and the German Agricultural Society (DLG) now plans to hold the next Agritechnica between 12 and 18 November 2023.
It’s been rumoured for a long time, now various media outlets report that major European rural sector event Agritechnica won’t take place in a face-to-face format. This has yet to be confirmed by show organiser the German Agricultural Society (DLG).
The organiser of the German exhibition known as IAA Cars for many a year caught the zeitgeist in 2021 and repackaged the event as IAA Mobility, broadening its remit to include cyclists and other mobility stakeholders. Similarly, it is expanding the concept behind the IAA Commercial Vehicles show and giving it a new identity – IAA Transportation. When returning to its familiar home in Hannover from 20 to 25 September 2022 after a prolonged absence, it will for the first time “give actors from the fields of commercial vehicles, buses and logistics the opportunity to network with leading tech providers and suppliers.”
Singapore has taken a hard line against Covid-19 and continues to enforce international travel restrictions. In order to ensure it can welcome visitors to Tyrexpo Asia 2022, organiser Tarsus Group has decided to hold the event in Bangkok instead. Thailand will allow quarantine-free entry for fully vaccinated travellers from low-risk countries from the beginning of November 2021 with no need to quarantine.
With just five months to go until the Agritechnica 2022 show begins, organiser DLG (the German Agricultural Society) says it expects around 2,000 exhibitors from 50 countries to be present at the show in Hannover. It adds that its Agritechnica Tracker 2021 survey suggests that visitor interest “continues to grow” as well, with approximately 94 per cent of respondents indicating they will attend next year’s fair and 58 per cent already certain that they will be there.
Tarsus Group, organisers of the forthcoming Tyrexpo Asia 2021 Show have affirmed that the event is ‘still’ on track to take place at the Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Centre in Singapore between the 17 and 19 November this year.
The”18th China International Tire and Wheel Expo (CITEXPO) 2021, which was previously scheduled for 16-18 August 2021 has been postponed to 2022 as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. The specific date for the 2022 edition will be announced later and an online equivalent will still be offered in 2021.
After postponing the event scheduled for November 2020, the organiser of EIMA International is planning to hold its agricultural machinery trade fair in Bologna next February. But not all exhibitors are convinced this is the right decision. In light of the ongoing coronavirus situation, tyre maker BKT has chosen not to take part in the show and instead will promote its products via digital media.
