Christian Wolf, Chairman of the Exhibitor Advisory Board and Managing Director of Turck: "Digital communication has dominated our activities for months. This is an ideal tool - especially in times when many of our customers are also working from home. Despite the many possibilities that this approach opens up for us, there is one point that is somewhat neglected: the direct exchange with the customer. These direct discussions are very important to us. They help us to build or deepen long-standing relationships and position ourselves as a global partner in order to develop optimal solutions for our customers' digital transformation and challenges. In my view, there is therefore no substitute for a personal meeting at a trade fair such as SPS in order to achieve the optimum business result for the customer and Turck. I am confident that with the safety concept that has now been approved, we can look forward to a trade fair highlight in November that will be different from previous trade fairs, but will take the entire industry one step further."
