Peter Mayer, CEO Adigo Drives
Here you can keep an ear to the ground and get indications of what is going on in the business world. For us at Adigo, the fair as a meeting place means that we can strengthen relationships with our existing customers – and have the opportunity to create new business opportunities.

Binella Vannesjö, Sustainability Manager/Founder AnVa Industries
We see Elmia Subcontractor as an important meeting place for meeting customers, suppliers and other contacts we work with. AnVa Industries has, among other things, "found the Horda Group" which we acquired in 2021, and it was entirely Elmia Subcontractor's "fault".

Heinz Nilsson, owner & CEO HNP Steel
Elmia Subcontractor is about customer care for us. This is where we meet and discuss future business, and of course there will also be the occasional new contact for us. In the past, it was more about business at the fair. Today we are highlighting the personal aspect.
