Flashback to the physical IMHX

IMHX 2021 goes virtual
United Kingdom
This year's International Materials Handling Exhibition (IMHX 2021) will be delivered as a virtual event, with the physical show returning in September 2022.
The show's organisers, Informa Markets and the British Industrial Truck Association (BITA), describe the decision to reposition IMHX 2021 as "necessary given current restrictions" but one "that opens a world of new opportunities for participants".
Rob Fisher, group director IMHX, says: "Virtual events and their platforms have grown in effectiveness over the last year and now play a vital role when it comes to generating qualified, in-market sales leads. IMHX Connect (13-17 September 2021) will harness best-in-class platforms to deliver an engaging series of industry updates and technology briefings along with the opportunity for visitors to build relationships with industry-leading intralogistics solution providers."
He adds that exhibitors share the vision for IMHX and are supportive of the decision to delay the physical event until 2022. "The launch of IMHX Connect is exciting, it adds to our reach and audience engagement opportunities and complements our plans for when we return to the NEC with the full IMHX Experience in September 2022," he adds.

Multimodal 2020, originally scheduled to take place on 16 -18 June 2020 and rescheduled to 22-24 June 2021, has now been postponed to 19-21 October 2021 at NEC, Birmingham.
Organisers say they are disappointed and regretful over this decision, which has been made with the safety of customers, attendees, staff and suppliers at the forefront of their thinking and in light of both governmental directions and general public health advice.
"The thoughts of all of us at Clarion Events Limited continue to be with everyone affected by COVID-19. Please also be assured that we remain committed to delivering the best possible event to bring value to your business," they add.
