(26 Aug 2020) The SPS 2020 trade fair planned for November in Nuremberg will not take place due to coronavirus. Mesago Messe Frankfurt has decided to hold the event in a purely virtual format.
According to the organisers, the main reasons for the cancellation include the many concerns expressed by participants regarding the significantly changed framework conditions and the Sorge around the employees. The prescribed strict distancing and hygiene rules as well as travel restrictions and a coronavirus pandemic-induced Uncertain economic situation suggest that the trade fair cannot be organised in the usual quality.
„We very much regret having to cancel this year's SPS 2020 in Nuremberg. At the beginning of summer, the omens looked very good and we firmly assumed that the trade fair would take place in Nuremberg in November. Our protection and hygiene concept planned at that time was well received and further developed with many of those involved in the trade fair. This showed us once again how well the SPS community works together and we would like to thank them for that.“ Martin Roschkowski, President Mesago Messe Frankfurt GmbH
SPS 2020 relocated to the network
The organiser Mesago Messe Frankfurt is already in the final realisation of a virtual offer. SPS Connect is intended to offer interested parties the opportunity to exchange information digitally on the latest developments and trends in automation technology. Like the planned physical trade fair, the virtual platform will start at the end of November, on 24 November 2020.
