Trade Show Review: CeMAT Asia, China, 2024

CeMAT Asia 2024 Phew. What can we say? Our first visit to mainland China, Shanghai and CeMAT Asia certainly did not disappoint. Our head is still spinning from the many product demonstrations with extra loud loudspeakers and other highly amplified sound effects. One stand even had a resident DJ just in case you missed out on the ambience. China increasingly developing unique solutions We can confidently state that China is no longer just copying Western ideas (there is definitely a level of "copying" continuing) and there are definite signs of new thinking and quick iterations from Chinese vendors. Why is this happening?...

Trade Show Review: LogiMAT 2024, Stuttgart, Germany

LogiMAT 2024 review Trade show: LogiMAT Date: Mar 19-21, 2024Location: Stuttgart, Germany (walking distance from the airport)Website: https://www.logimat-messe.de/enVisitors: 67,240 (source)Exhibitors: 1,610 (source) LOGIMAT TRADE SHOW LogiMAT is the primary intralogistics annual trade show in Europe. The fair is located at the Messe Stuttgart, super conveniently near Stuttgart Airport, a mere 5min walk from the airport. As with most German trade shows STIQ has visited, it is supremely signed as well so you would have to do very well to get lost. With 10 exhibition halls full, LogiMAT is quite a busy show and it is important to go with a strategy to finish the entire show...

Trade Show Review: Modex 2024, March, Atlanta, Georgia, US

STIQ x MODEX 2024 REVIEW As the annual warehouse automation trade show calendar goes, March is typically when things are happening. First out on our calendar was MODEX (organised by MHI) in Atlanta, Georgia. The show was held Monday March 11-14 and STIQs team arrived on the 9th. We had enough time to include a basketball game with the Atlanta Hawks playing at home. Unfortunately the home team lost. But, we had a great time and tried our best to enjoy that $15 can of beer (talk about inflation).  Tom Andersson and Yassir Al-Refaie from STIQ at the Hawks v Pelicans game. 2024,...

Trade Show Review: NRF2024, January, New York, US

NRF2024 was a full return to normal following the pandemic. Visitor numbers back to full force. Very few if any at all exhibitor cancellations. New food innovation zone and some exciting MHE displays. Overall, a lack of excitement despite all the AI talk.

Trade Show Visit: Parcel + Post 2023

Parcel + Post (website) is a niche show targeting postal and courier operators, but also attracts larger retailers. The show is held annually at RAI Amsterdam in the Netherlands and is easily accessible from Amsterdam Centraal Station (4 stops). STIQ visited the show for the first time in 2023.  LAYOUT The show consists of 3 halls and is a relatively small show. There were about 200 exhibitors, ranging from sortation equipment and conveyor vendors to locker manufacturers (plenty of locker vendors!).  Whilst the show is small, it appeared they manage to attract a high calibre clientele or attendees. Or as one exhibitor...
