Koelnmesse is developing a new hybrid event, the Anuga HORIZON, aimed at closing a gap with its interdisciplinary approach, as it identified a rising need for new solutions. As an innovation and business platform, the event examines solutions for the future challenges of the industry every two years. The concept of Anuga HORIZON is based on a combination between an exhibition, conference and experience and unites theory and practice using interactive formats.

The first edition will be staged from September 6 to 8, 2022. “The idea for the event was born two years ago when we placed the focus on future solutions and new technological approaches at Anuga 2019 in the form of the special event, ‘Anuga Horizon 2050’. Changing consumer demands, increased digitalization, the increased implementation of disruptive technologies require a paradigm change within the industry,” explained Gerald Böse, President and Chief Executive Officer of Koelnmesse GmbH.
