The NürnbergMesse Group with a turnover of more than 150 million Euros is one of the 20 largest exhibition companies in the world and one of the Top Ten in Europe. The portfolio covers more than 100 international exhibitions and congresses at the Nürnberg location and worldwide. Every year, over 27,000 exhibitors (international share: 37 %), 895,000 trade visitors (international share: 20 %) and 395,000 consumers participate in the NürnbergMesse Group’s own, partner and guest events. The NürnbergMesse Group comprises NürnbergMesse, Nürnberg Global Fairs, NürnbergMesse China, NürnbergMesse North America, NürnbergMesse Brasil, and the new NürnbergMesse Italia.

NürnbergMesse North America started its USA operations by organizing the American Coatings Show 2008 in Charlotte, North Carolina in June of 2008.
Within the next years, NürnbergMesse North America will expand its portfolio of North American trade shows.


Another part of our business is managing and operating USA Pavilions overseas. Whether companies are a first time exhibitor, or seasoned exhibitor at shows in Nürnberg, exhibiting in the USA Pavilions of our overseas shows provides them with a very cost-effective exhibiting option. In addition to a favorable location in the exhibit halls, the USA Pavilion offers an attractive and professional appearance, as well as all design, materials, and construction elements at an affordable price. Some of the events we participate in are certified under the U.S. Department of Commerce's Trade Fair Certification Program.

As US Representative for NürnbergMesse Group we assist and support US companies to expand their business into global markets. The increase of cross-cultural business as well as global networking open new business opportunities and our team will assist international companies to exploit these business opportunities in all global markets.

One of the reasons why German exhibition companies have been so successful over the past century is because they merge robust business mechanisms, perfected over a long period of time, with elements that apply to other countries. As both show organizers and facility operators, German exhibition companies develop event concepts and recreate successful ones around the globe. They also can respond quickly to the changing environment and again, with due diligence, make their shows relevant and efficient.

The economic environment is creating a shift in the U.S. tradeshow exhibitor and visitor demographics. We see more and more global businesses sending senior-level executives and department heads to the U.S. shows. These high-ranking participants want to quickly connect with pre-qualified buyers and expect immediate returns on their tradeshow investments.
