HANNOVER MESSE 2025

From March 31 to April 4, 2025, the city of Hannover will host a new edition of Hannover Messe — the world’s leading industrial trade fair. Under the motto “Energizing a Sustainable Industry,” the event will gather more than 4,000 exhibitors and 130,000 professional visitors from across the globe to showcase the latest innovations in automation, artificial intelligence, energy, digitalization, and industrial connectivity.

A key highlight will be the participation of Catena-X, which will present its vision for a connected automotive industry through open and collaborative data spaces. From its booth in Hall 8 (D26), Catena-X will offer live demonstrations of solutions built on the Tractus-X framework, featuring real applications for traceability, quality management, and sustainability across the automotive value chain.

The Catena-X Competence Centre will accompany these activities with a strong presence in multiple sessions and business meetings, reinforcing Spain’s role as an active and relevant player in the development of European industrial data infrastructures.

Throughout the fair, workshops will take place on SME integration and interoperability standards, along with bilateral meetings with representatives from other national Hubs (Germany, France, Italy) to align strategies and share best practices. A technical session titled “Catena-X: How to Connect, Collaborate and Create Value” also will present the tools and resources available for new participants joining the ecosystem.

Hannover Messe 2025 will serve as a global showcase to strengthen international alliances, boost the onboarding of new nodes, and consolidate Catena-X’s position as the European standard for secure, sovereign, and scalable industrial data exchange.
