This INDUSTRIAL SPRING will undoubtedly go down in history!

2024 Targi Kielce's Industrial Spring was held at quite extraordinary time. The industry has slowly recovered from stagnation. There have been agricultural strikes in the background; a perfect recipe for a failure. And the event culminated in utmost success. The exhibition hosted 1,000 more visitors than last year.

2024 Exhibition of Metal Processing Technologies and its accompanying events hosted 22,000 visitors. There were additional benefits for industry insiders calling in the expo centre. The number of technical school students visiting the fair decreased - this year, there were only 1,500, and last year there were 2,500. The exhibitors' feedback leaves no doubt; this has been a really good trade show.

- We returned to Kielce last year, we missed the opportunity during the pandemic. We have exhibited for many years because we find the event held in Kielce is the most important for our industry in Poland. It is definitely worth being a part of the show; expo participation offers us brand recognition. There is never enough boost in brand recognition. Even though our brand is well-known among customers, there are always prospective customers. The show also offers a chance to show new products. Usually, the first expo day us used to ramp up and gain momentum. This time, the number of people on the first was at par with the turnout on on the second day. People we have known visited us, we had conversations which related to the contacts that had already started. My take on it is that we are satisfied with the signatures on the dotted line - this is how Jakub Szyndlar and how Jakub Szyndlar, Abplanalp Customer Development Technologist, recapitulated the Industrial Spring 2024 participation.

A wealthy offer

Nearly 600 exhibitors presented exactly what Industrial Spring has been created for - machines working live. Robots - there are more and more of them every year. This year offered abundance of dynamic presentations of complete robotic lines. Cutting tools, grinding technology had also a strong representation. Machine tools reigned supreme in the E Expo Hall, and 3D printing enthusiasts could also enjoy these experiences. Measuring devices also made up a large part of the exhibition.

Technologies knowledge pool

The knowledge-packed meetings are an indispensable part the Industrial Spring; this year's agenda also deserved special attention. A specialised conference organised by a well-known industry publishing house ELAMED was designed to present the latest technological solutions in the steel processing market. The "INNOVATION and NEW TECHNOLOGIES" seminar was a perfect place for exhibitors to present their company-focused information package, and disseminate technology and product information. The annual Laser Processing Seminar was the knowledge complement of the STOM-Laser; all types of laser technologies used in industry is the seminar's main theme. The Seminar on "Rapid prototyping of metals" was the exciting and compelling proposal ofŁukasiewicz Research Network – Upper Silesian Institute of Technology .

Medals and distinctions - the expo tradition

The gala ceremony was held on the first day of the show was when the best products and services showcased at the expo earned accolades. The Jury Panel of each expo decided which products deserve recognition. The jury panel was composed of leading business insiders. The awarding ceremony also encompassed Top Design awards and distinctions for original and modern style of expo presentation. The Targi Kielce Management Board also recognised the companies that are celebrating their anniversaries this year.

We look forward to seeing you at the upcoming Targi Kielce's Industrial Spring held from 25 to 28 March 2025.
