Subcontracting Trade Fair 2017 Focuses on Partnership - is Your Network up to Date?

WASHINGTON, May 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --Representatives of industrial sector will meet on an international level in Tampere in Finland on 26-28 of September at the Subcontracting 2017 - Alihankinta 2017 Trade Fair, which is 27th of its kind. Theme of this year is partnership networks, which is continually growing in importance. This year, Alihankinta 2017 organisers have partnered with MSK Group. This year will also see continuation of AlihankintaHEAT, which was held for the first time in conjunction with last year's trade fair. Last year a record number of 18,422 industry professionals were drawn to the trade fair.

"At last year's Alihankinta trade fair, questions were raised about whether or not industrial operations would finally pick up - and so they did. Projects were proposed during the autumn and now they are being planned and launched," says Sales Group Manager Jani Maja from Tampere Trade Fairs Group. "So it is time to ensure that the entire network of a company is able to respond to possible increases in needs. Alihankinta trade fair is an effective way to map out any potential new partners and to find out what field of industry is currently doing best," Maja adds.
