ALUMINIUM 2016 WITH NEW NETWORKING TOOL

Trade fairs are for networking – whether it’s to maintain existing business contacts or to expand one’s international network of professionals. And to make this task work even better at ALUMINIUM from now on, the free ALUMINIUM Matchmaking Tool will be introduced at the 11. World Trade Fair of the Aluminium Industry. This international cooperation platform enables exhibitors and visitors to put out their feelers and establish targeted contacts with each other, all before the event even starts. ALUMINIUM is scheduled to take place in Düsseldorf from 29 November to 1 December 2016.



Who’s attending the trade fair? Who do I know? Who am I looking for? For the first time this year, ALUMINIUM will help exhibitors and visitors to answer these questions by providing a networking tool designed specifically for the trade fair. To facilitate effective time management, the online ALUMINIUM Matchmaking Tool will be available starting in October for you to search for and identify international cooperation partners to meet at the World Trade Fair of the Aluminium Industry in Düsseldorf from 29 November to 1 December. That way, you can already start exchanging information and plan meetings in the run-up to the event. Complementing the online platform, the Matchmaking Lounge in Hall 12, Stand E25, is the perfect place for mutually beneficial conversations.

“ALUMINIUM is the industry’s largest relationship broker. The new Matchmaking Tool will make networking even easier and more efficient”, summarises ALUMINIUM Event Director Olaf Freier. “Because business contacts are made ahead of the event, the meetings in the matchmaking area at ALUMINIUM can take place on the highest level and with the biggest chances of success.”

The procedure
All registered visitors and exhibitors will automatically receive an invitation to participate in ALUMINIUM’s matchmaking process. Once your profile has been activated and unlocked, you’ll be able to filter cooperation partners by country, sector or product category and directly request appointments. Appointments are only generated if both parties confirm. As a special service, each participant will receive his or her personal meeting schedule shortly before the start of the trade fair.
