The 2007 EPHJ Exhibition is already fully booked

Encouraged by the result of the 2006 edition, the organisers have decided to increase the show’s exhibition floor space by more than 25% for this year. In spite of this decision, the 2007 EPHJ show is already fully booked. About 320 exhibitors have already registered, indicating that EPHJ is already promises to be even more enriching in terms of know-how, products and services on show and that it will allow visitors seeking new ideas and suppliers to choose from an increasingly extensive and comprehensive range of offerings.

As to the enterprises, which wished to exhibit at the EPHJ Show, but have not signed up yet, they still have the alternative, unless their activities are exclusively in jewellery and watch-making, to present and make their specificity known by exhibiting at the EPMT Show (Professional Microtechnology Environment - Environnement Professionnel MicroTechnologies) which will take place at the same time as the EPHJ Show, from June 5 – 8, at Beaulieu in Lausanne. Indeed, this Trade Show is devoted to enterprises engaged in all the micro-nanotechnologies, in areas as varied as, yet close and complementary to, the aerospace industry, robotics, medical equipment, phototonics, biotechnology, automobile equipment, etc. The two Shows, which are both identical and complementary, will host all visitors, whether they come specifically to explore only one or the other of the Shows.
Moreover, the Swiss Federal University of Technology (EPFL - Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne) and the Swiss Foundation for the Research in Microtechnology (FSRM - Fédération Suisse pour la Recherche en Microtechnique) have planned to organise – on the occasion of the EPMT Show - a series of lectures this year on the subject of robotics and automation. On the same occasion, the France-Swiss Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CFSCI) will also organise a one-day business forum on June 7th (scheduled and personalised encounters) for Swiss professionals placing orders (no charge for participation) and French sub-contractors (EPMT/EPHJ exhibitors will be charged highly preferential rates). The sectors targeted specifically are: machine tools/special machines, electric and electronic appliances, chemicals and pharmaceuticals, biotechnology/nanotechnology, semi-conductors/ telecommunications, aeronautical industry…(information : CFSCI – tel : 41(0)22 849 05 70 ).
There is no doubt whatsoever that the simultaneous staging of these two Trade Shows, these veritable exchange and business platforms which the EPHJ and the EPMT are, will generate interesting synergies for exhibitors and visitors alike.
