drupa 2024 has reached a milestone of 100,00 sq.mtrs of space already booked by around 900 exhibitors from 45 countries with a year and a half yet to go.
Germany is again the strongest exhibiting nation among the top 10 followed by such countries as Belgium, China, India, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the USA.

The range, variety and staging of innovations are unique and will once again provide a glimpse into the future of this industry. With ideal prerequisites for exhibitors and visitors to network intensely and drive forward-looking projects” she adds.
