The professional world can look forward to surprising and impressive appearances and product launches, especially by global key players along the entire value chain.

An overview of the exhibitors, their innovations and contact options for making appointments in the run-up to the trade fair comes care of the new drupa Exhibitor and Product Database. Convenient product categorisation, modern and coherent design as well as the option of filtering content by personal interest, all enable visitors to gain a comprehensive overview even before the trade fair kicks off. And because you can make contact quickly this also eases trade fair planning. The Exhibitor and Product Database is live as of now and constantly updated with new information and products. Another valuable tool for preparing the visit is the Interactive Hall Plan.

Interesting products, personal recommendations and your own appointment itinerary: using the MyOrganizer functionality you can already prepare your personal “itinerary” through the exhibition halls in a few steps. MyOrganizer can be used after registering in the ticket shop with a personal login or also without registration. The Login is convenient to use on various devices (smartphone, PC) over an extended period. Once compiled, the list can be adapted or supplemented each time it is called up.
