A renewed exhibition format with a new name. Industrial Maintenance will now be renamed Maintenance NEXT - a technology and maintenance expo with more technology, more inspiration and more interaction that is set to become the place where all maintenance professionals can come together to share their passion for technology.

NEXT Maintenance Technology
Maintenance is becoming increasingly less focussed on the restoration of the original state, but on the improvement of this. In many cases, factual maintenance proceedings are becoming more simple, the concepts are becoming more complex and the technology more innovative. Maintenance NEXT will place innovative technology centre stage and the sector as a whole will provide a glimpse of how maintenance will look in the future from 12 April to 14 April 2011 inclusive. 

Cross-fertilisation
New maintenance concepts demand a higher level of management and therefore more brainwork. The knowledge programme will therefore be deployed on a higher and more conceptual technological level. Technology conferences will fulfil the role of forums in which innovative trends within the maintenance sector can be discussed. These trends will even be represented in the corresponding Technology expositions in the form of hands-on technology and multimedia explanation. By adopting this approach, Maintenance NEXT is aiming to promote an exchange of knowledge between decision-makers within the sector.
