With the special edition of imm cologne, we wanted to play an active role in tackling the current crisis. Now we have to abandon that plan. The on-site experience of a trade fair is and always will be something very special, and the developments of recent weeks \u2013 and in particular the latest feedback from our customers \u2013 have shown that today\u2019s cancellation of the special edition, which we had planned with so much dedication and commitment, is the right decision because it\u2019s appropriate to the situation,<\/em>\u201d says<strong> Oliver Frese<\/strong>, COO of <strong>Koelnmesse<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>The fact that imm cologne 2021 can\u2019t take place because of the pandemic is extremely regrettable for our industry.
