After an interval of two-year, Hannover Messe resumed its offline events this year with "Industrial Transformation" as the lead theme, which focuses on digitalization and sustainability.
From Monday to Thursday, about 2,500 companies from around 60 countries will be showcasing their innovations for factories and energy systems of the future.
Key topics of this year's exhibition include digital ecosystems and energy solutions, while hydrogen fuel cells are also among the highlights.
At the opening ceremony, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that after 75 years of evolvement, Hannover Messe is once again standing for a new start, stressing its specific importance in terms of the economic transformation of the country.
Neither the COVID-19 pandemic nor the Ukraine crisis has reduced the urgency of industrial transformation, he said, noting that becoming independent of fossil energy not only makes sense in terms of climate policy but also "makes economic sense."
Due to the outbreak of COVID-19, the event canceled its 2020 fair and switched to online exhibitions in 2021.
