The positive mood in the industrial sector was visible in the more international nature of the Subcontracting Trade Fair
Visitors to the Subcontracting Trade Fair, held in Tampere last week, numbered 17,684. The trade fair had exhibitors from 20 countries. The next Subcontracting Trade Fair will be held on 25–27 September 2018, which will also mark the 30th anniversary of the event. Subcontracting 2018 will focus on productivity developments in manufacturing. AlihankintaHEAT, an event that highlights start-up companies, will be held next year as well and play an increasingly important role in the trade fair. Next autumn, the trade fair will also be visited by participants of the IFPSM World Summit 2018.“It
