InnoTrans is an international trade fair for transport technology in terms of innovative components, vehicles and systems, which takes place every two years in Berlin. Since its founding in 1996, it is an integral part of the fair landscape in Berlin and functions since 2000 as the leading event of the industry. Berlin is considered as German competence center for traffic engineering with over 220 firms settled and therefore provides the ideal location for a trade show in this format. As an industry platform national and international suppliers gather with buyers from the fields of passenger and freight transport. The focal product groups are railway technology, railway infrastructure, interiors, public transport and tunnel construction. In addition, on the railway tracks at the outdoor area a wide range of track-bound vehicles from railcars and locomotives over rail freight vehicles, trams, construction and road-rail vehicles to broad and narrow gauge railways will be presented. An important part of the InnoTrans is the InnoTrans Convention. With first-class expert panels and high-profile panel discussions it has established itself as an international communication meeting point for top decision-makers from politics, economy and transport. Here future trends and visions but also relevant mobility topics will be discussed. The Career & Education Hall offers all entrants a central meeting point and completes the range of the InnoTrans perfectly.
On the whole the organisers welcomed on the 4 days of the fair, from 23. September to 26. September 2014, about 2761 exhibitors from 55 countries and 138872 visitors from 146 countries on the InnoTrans in Berlin.
The InnoTrans will take place on 4 days from Tuesday, 18. September to Friday, 21. September 2018 in Berlin.
