INDUSTRIEPREIS 2017: Winning mood at HANNOVER MESSE
The start of HANNOVER MESSE was doubly exciting for some exhibitors this year: After the official opening of the world's most important industrial trade fair by German Chancellor Angela Merkel, they were awarded the INDUSTRIEPREIS 2017 directly at their booth. The INDUSTRIEPREIS team presented the beaming winners with a trophy and a certificate.
With a flurry of flashbulbs and public recognition, the award ceremony paid off directly for the winners of the INDUSTRIEPREIS 2017 - and was thus a complete success: "It is always a pleasure to see how proudly the companies accept their award," describes Rainer Kölmel, Managing Director and initiator of the INDUSTRIEPREIS. "And they have every right to be! Because they have all convinced our top-class expert jury of professors, scientists, industry experts and trade journalists and have proven with their award-winning products how strong the industry is. The companies work continuously on the further development of their products as well as on new ideas with which they meet current trends such as Industry 4.0. We are all the more pleased to be able to honour their entrepreneurial courage and commitment with the INDUSTRIEPREIS."
This year at HANNOVER MESSE, innovative solutions for energy generation and for cooperation between humans and robots will be on display. Among them are robots that automatically detect when an employee is nearby and react accordingly.

Then, on April 25, 2017, a next highlight took place: the publication of the INDUSTRIE-Bestenliste 2017 with the winners and best of the INDUSTRIEPREIS. The exclusive compendium includes the most advanced industrial products and provides assistance in choosing suitable solutions.
