On September 23, 2021, the two-day W3 + Fair Rheintal 2021 network fair for enabling technologies came to an end in Dornbirn. A successful restart after the lockdown: the live event attracted many interested trade visitors from the Rhine Valley to the trade fair district, where they were able to discuss the latest technological developments with around 120 exhibitors, partners, sponsors and speakers. Big players like Swarotec, Bruker, Swiss Optic, Materion Balzers Optics and OptoTech but also many SMEs used the interdisciplinary meeting to position themselves for the future with new contacts and partners. A total of companies and networks from 7 countries were represented at the event. More than 35 specialist speakers shared their knowledge at the accompanying N-Tec Talks conference and at the EPIC TechWatch. The special area “Additive Manufacturing / 3D Printing” also met with interest, where AM Pioneers presented a world first with the Wizard 480+, the industrial 3D printing system from Aps techsolutions.

The upcoming W3 + Fair in Dornbirn will take place on November 30th and December 1st, 2022.
