“Making more out of wood<\/b>”. The slogan of Ligna 2009 <\/b>seems particularly effective. The great event, as the home of processing technology for wood and wood-based materials, will be held in Hannover next 18-22 May.
\nAs to figures, there should not be significant changes from the past. Despite the economic crisis, organizers are confident that Hannover will host 1,800 exhibitors (in 2007 there were 1,832) covering 148 thousand square meters of net exhibition area, the same as the previous edition. No surprise is expected on the visitors’ side, either: about 100 thousand industry operators are expected, just like two years ago.
\n“We think we will keep our standards <\/i>– explained Andreas Zuege<\/b>, the new manager of the Italian subsidiary of the Hannover Fair<\/b> – because people feel urged to talk and discuss when times get tough. We believe that, in periods like the current one, the industry needs to meet in the most important place, to discuss and understand what they can do to turn page. Ligna’s leadership in these circumstances stands out strongly: companies might consider to reduce their participation in other events, more local or regional, but they know they cannot miss the date in Hannover<\/i>”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
