The IMB Forum 2007 will be a popular event among sector companies from all over the world. The international exhibition with accompanying congress, which will take place at the Cologne exhibition center from November 21 to 22, 2007, has developed into one of the sector's top annual events.
A total of 83 exhibitors from 11 countries will be taking part, including such leading names as Gerber, Lectra, Assyst, Intex, Thiel FashionLifestyle, MobiMedia, Impuls, and Futura Retail Solution. With this turnout, the number of exhibitors has once again increased, surpassing the number from the previous event in 2004.
Suppliers from Germany, China, France, the UK, Italy, Israel, the Netherlands, Portugal, Slovenia, Austria, and the United States are participating. And in 2007 the IMB Forum has grown not only in terms of exhibitor numbers, but also in terms of its exhibition space, which is 16 percent larger than the area occupied by the 2004 event.
The IMB Forum therefore covers almost the entire spectrum of IT products and services for the textiles processing industry and its interfaces with the trade. The exhibitors are presenting practice-oriented solutions along the entire textile value chain, which makes the forum the ideal business platform for promoting direct dialogue between users and suppliers of IT solution for clothing manufacturing and textile processing.
In 2007 the IMB Forum will once again comprise an exhibition and an accompanying congress. The theme of the first day of the event will be “Building the Apparel Community – Collaborative Ways to Success.”
