LOPEC is a very successful trade fair. Each year, LOPEC attracts participants from the industry’s various sectors. The mix of attendees is of very high quality. Visitors come from all over the world, with more than half coming from abroad. Furthermore, the majority of visitors are decision makers.

These are the success figures of LOPEC 2019 (Classical realization as a physical-presence trade fair): About 2,700 visitors came from 44 countries, and approximately half of them came from countries other than Germany.

The vast majority of visitors were key decision makers: 85 percent stated that they had direct influence on the decisions made within their company.

Each year we ask LOPEC exhibitors and visitors to evaluate the trade fair so that we can find out exactly how we can improve.

Here is a breakdown of the results of the 2019 survey carried out by the independent research institute „Gelszus“.

The main purpose of LOPEC is to foster new potential business partnerships. Our trade fair is a very effective way to achieve this. 84 percent of the exhibitors rate the establishment of new business contacts as “excellent”, “very good” or “good”. This also applies to the visitors, as the establishment of new business relations was an important reason for them to attend the exhibition. Cultivating existing business contacts and exchanging experiences are a high priority among exhibitors.

LOPEC's unique strength is its comprehensive range, covering not only materials and manufacturing processes, but also applications, devices, and services. Trade fair participants very much value this broad selection of sectors.
