Nurnberg . There is great interest in the new elevator trade fair organised by interlift organiser AFAG in cooperation with ELEVATOR WORLD. And that is not surprising. After all, there is currently no industry platform that covers the highly interesting area of North Africa, the Middle East and India.

Dubai is regarded as a location ideally suited for almost all relevant visitor groups thanks to its investment-friendly economic policy and visa-free entry. In addition, AFAG has proven with the world's leading trade fair interlift that it can develop trade fairs very successfully.

Almost 50 elevator companies have already decided to participate, and Turkey and the USA are currently strongly represented. Large joint participations from Germany, Italy, China and India are currently being prepared. In addition, an extensive technical accompanying program will supplement the trade fair.

Exhibitors of ELEVATOR SHOW DUBAI can expect the first-class service to which they are accustomed at interlift. Thus the interlift project management team has been reinforced by Joachim Kalsdorf, who will also be in charge of the new trade fair. Bülent Yilmaz, who is already active as a representative for interlift, will also act as a contact person for interested companies for the trade fair in Dubai.
