High-tech meets Users

The cross-sector concept makes the W3+ Fair so unique: Researchers, developers, and producers from the four key technologies network with each other and meet top international experts from important application areas such as MedTech, Life Sciences, Automotive, Aerospace, Consumer Electronics, and Tools & Machinery. Innovative strength meets concrete needs. With success: The W3+ Fair is the setting for shared visions and new partnerships for the technological requirements of tomorrow.

Interdisciplinary platform

Developers and users network in a personal environment across disciplines and countries, advancing new technologies and solutions.
Major players and emerging companies position themselves successfully for the future with new contacts and partners.
The W3+ Fair takes place at two top technology locations, where local companies are celebrating global success: in the optics region of Wetzlar in Hesse and in Jena in Thuringia, the trade fair leverages the appeal of the economically strong high-tech industry. The W3+ Fair is organized by the Hamburg-based trade fair organizer Fleet Events.
