Vision 2020 is canceled
The Vision trade fair for machine vision, which was planned for November 2020, will not take place. The trade fair organizer announced that it would develop further formats and announce a new date.
Messe Stuttgart has been in contact with the exhibitors at Vision over the past few weeks. "In the discussions held, it became clear that Vision could not be realized in the usual quality this year, particularly due to the high level of internationality in combination with the ongoing travel restrictions," reports Florian Niethammer, Project Manager of Vision. "In close cooperation with our exhibitors, who have withdrawn their participation in the trade fair, and our conceptual sponsor, VDMA Machine Vision, we have therefore informed all trade fair participants today that Vision, the world's leading trade fair for machine vision, will not take place this year," adds Niethammer.
A survey was also launched in order to focus more closely on the needs of the industry and derive suitable measures. "It is important to us to find out more about the impact on exhibitors and visitors and their business as a result of the Vision being canceled, which is why we are specifically seeking feedback and asking people to actively help shape the event," explains Niethammer. The aim for the team is to develop meaningful formats from the results of the survey and to be able to announce the date of the next Vision in a timely manner.
