Control 2021 is cancelled
The decision has been made: Control, the international trade fair for quality assurance planned for the beginning of May 2021, cannot take place as a presence event this year either.
Exhibitors and trade visitors are waiting to finally be able to exchange ideas in person again. But the current pandemic situation requires continued patience from all involved. "It's with a heavy heart that we've made the decision to cancel Control 2021 as a presence trade fair", announces Bettina Schall, managing director of trade fair promoter P. E. Schall GmbH & Co. "Once again, we've made this decision with all involved parties based on reason and a sense of responsibility." According to Schall, many companies from all industries had eagerly awaited Control as the most important trade event for all aspects of measuring and inspection technology, vision technology, image processing and sensor technology, and thus the most important platform for industrial quality assurance. For this reason, the cancellation is particularly regrettable.
Control-Virtuell connects provider and user
Above all, leading trade fairs such as Control are an important source of impetus for the industry; after all, efficient quality assurance (QA) increases the competitiveness of manufacturing processes. As a reflection of economic strength and due to the personal exchange, trade fairs are an irreplaceable platform for sustainable business relationships. This makes the decision to cancel the 2021 event, which was taken after intensive and constructive discussions with many representatives of the industry, all the more difficult. Everyone agreed that the importance of Control for industrial QA is constantly increasing and is even gaining in importance in the current situation. For this reason, suppliers and users would initially concentrate again on the online marketplace Control-Virtuell: This means that topics relating to measuring and testing technology as well as vision technology, image processing and sensor technology are digitally available worldwide 365 days a year around the clock for lead generation. With the thematically focused search engine, desired information can be selected via the trade fair nomenclature. News about world premieres, product innovations and services of the QS providers are thus available in a structured and up-to-date manner at all times, as the organizer concludes.
The next Control as a classroom event will take place from 03 to 06 May 2022.
