World's leading trade fair
A leading international trade fair or trade fair is a trade fair that is considered to be a leading international exhibition within its sector and is therefore the most important industry meeting point. Many companies use these trade fairs to present their new products or services to the public, as they attract more attention due to the increased media presence .
A large part of the world's leading trade fairs are purely trade fairs to which only trade visitors with a corresponding invitation or accreditation have access. Small trade fairs with only a few thousand visitors can also function as leading trade fairs. Usually, congresses or symposia take place parallel to these leading trade fairs .
