The next stop of the EMO World Tour Team is Istanbul. The fact that there is a great interest in the world's leading trade fair for metalworking in Turkey could be noticed in the run-up to the press conference. More than 40 Turkish exhibitors have already registered for the EMO Hannover 2017. Dr. Wilfried Schäfer, Executive Director VDW (German Machine Tool Builders’ Association) and Dr. Andreas Gruchow, Member of the Managing board Deutsche Messe AG, were delighted to have a vivid exchange with journalists and trade visitors. They were supported by Nail Türker, General Secretariat of the Turkish Machine Tool Makers Association Makina Imalatçilari Birliği (MIB), Belkis Ertaşkin, Assistant General Manager of Messe Hannover in Turkey, and Orhan Iğrek, General Manager of Iğrek Makina Sanayi ve Ticaret A. Ş. As a longtime exhibitor of the EMO, Orhan Iğrek has only words of praise for the EMO Hannover. He has been coming to the show for years, as it is the best place to exhibit his innovations, he explained.
