Supporting the ­global Industry The ”global collaboration network“. That’s how we have chosen­ to explain what IFES is, in three words.

To enhance the number of partnerships within the IFES family, we are offering several opportunities to ”get to know one ­another.“ The most prominent is the IFES World Summit, which takes place every year in June. “Reaching New Heights” is the theme for 2018 when we will meet in Chicago. Second is the IFES Global Village premiered at EuroShop in Düsseldorf and will continue at ExhibitorLive in≈ Las Vegas in 2018.

But to understand what IFES is you have to go into deeper detail. IFES represents more than 270 Companies from around the­­globe. Each of these companies has signed the IFES Code of Conduct – a kind of constitution which rules the collaboration within the whole network. So, if an IFES partner serves the customer of another member, both, the customer and member know that they will be treated in≈ a professional manner from a company upholding the highest of quality standards. This is a value-added member benefit that is hard to put a price on.

Two educational programs offered by IFES – Masterclass and Certified Expert – ensure we have well-educated, global-thinking employees serving our industry. Both programs will run at the end of the year again. ”Support and be supported“ – that is the general idea of the federation. And we are proud to be a part of it.

This is the second issue of IFES Worldview.

After the success of our first magazine and the ­overwhelming popularity we decided to ­continue with this format on an annual basis.

This years edition focusses on ‘Value’ generated by the Exhibition and Event industry in general. ­Inspiring Projects is a column we will continue, and≈ IFES Insights will give you the chance to learn more about current activities in our ­a ssociation. I hope you will enjoy the read.

A Question of Price Stand construction specialists today are in high-demand, not because of their obvious ability to provide and implement high-quality work but mainly due to their expertise as strategic consultants. Due to various changes in our industry, the role of guiding customers through the thicket of trade fairs is much more demanding and time-consuming that it was ten years ago.

In terms of both technology and content, stand concepts have become highly-complex with increasing safety requirements, and the tendency towards later project requests with shortened project cycles, currently present formidable challenges to those charged with executing trade fair appearances.

The Early Involvement Factor Developing credible and competent consultation skills is not only about content-related expertise, it also takes time. “Our consulting work starts long before the con­ struction planning. Early Involvement is an integral part of our business model, explains Ralf Thomas Becker; director of sales and project management at mac messeund ausstellungs­center Service GmbH in Langenlonsheim.

“At the beginning of trade fair planning we check that stand building and communications concepts are matching and advise our customers to choose the better option.”

Human resources as a basis for consultancy competence In light of the aforementioned challenges of shorter set-up times, the tendency of ever-later customer inquiries and the increased complexity of the trade fair construction concepts, the advice of an experienced trade fair company, is now, more than ever, essential. “It takes staff with many years of experience, and it is also important to build a team with a broad portfolio of skills,” says Atelier Damböck’s managing director, Simon Damböck. “Effective consulting cannot be truly implemented by a project manager alone.

It must be the principal function of a trade fair company, on par with any customer service initiative.”

Community Interest Work Time and time again, construction planning is included too late in the project organization. When the expertise of the Realization specialst is used too late, so he can only act as a last second “fire extinguisher”— the cost is often nerves and money. In order to keep this situation from continually happening, Damböck urges the entire industry to strengthen our position as trade fair experts by focusing less on internal management policies and more on communicating this message in the interest of the general trade fair community.

Associations as an Industry Backbone In terms of promoting the general interest of our community, associations assume an important role in representing the industry as a neutral party with a megaphone, and an ever­-present finger on the pulse of the industry. Individual companies are less vulnerable with the help of associations.

Raylase @ Laser World of Photonics 2017, mac

An association can strengthen the industry as a whole by giving it a backbone. It needs this sovereignty to be per­­ceiv­ed not so much by its implementation but rather for its ability to provide competent advice to stakeholders in the industry.

Alternative House Fairs The exhibitors have the leverage over trade fairs and can use their influence to use shorter construction times as a means of raising profits. If this develops into a trend, ­O livier Morlon, CEO of i.xpo, from Kaarst nearby Düsseldorf, predicts that some exhibitors will sooner or later refrain from participating in trade fairs and instead switch to presentation formats such as in-house exhibitions.

More Industry Awareness Damböck demands more self-confidence from stand construction stakeholders, “We should not hide our light under a bushel. We should show and explain the full talents and abilities that we possess. If every stand con­struc­t ion company begins to simply look like a com­ munication agency, this undermines are credibility. ­Because only when there is trust in the competency of our consulting will costs cease to be the main topic within the customer discussion.

Trade Show Benefit Check So, after all is said and done you don’t know how successful your fair was? Or you want to know how much you have to spend if you do not attend the next Trade show? then why not carry out a Trade Show Benefit Check. This software helps exhibitors to assess their participation in a show and calculates a cost-benefit balance. And it helps exhibit houses to consult exhibitors to select the best fitting solution. Both Exhibitors and Consulting Partners can make use of the software during planning period. The answer they will find is:

What would it cost to reach the goals which trade fair ­participation can achieve bya using other means (­a dvertising, sales force, etc)?

This software for planning, calculating and evaluating trade fair participation is available free of charge in four languages: English, French, Spanish, German, It contains instructional videos on how to use the software.

An industry empowering ­itself through Digitization and fresh Talent When we think back to forecasts of the way businesses were ex­pected to operate today, it might come as a surprise to see just how many widely accepted predictions simply never came to be. The paperless office; people conducting their business alone as if buying a gift on Amazon; connected and transacting only via screen.

We in the global exhibition industry are better placed than most to know why. As a face-toface industry, we know that most important decisions are made when physically surrounded by others. While the Internet is a perfect tool for delivering targeted audiences to the events

we’ve paid to attend, exhibitions stand alone in their ability to provide us with the forum we need to turn these needs into business.

It is precisely this element of the exhibition medium – the fact that buyers predominantly attend live events by design rather than by chance – that makes the industry ripe for digitization. And the way in which these interactions are being enhanced though a modern digital approach is perhaps the greatest tide of change we are witnessing in the industry at the moment.

With digitization accelerating in businesses around the world,

it’s little surprise that UFI’s most recent Global Barometer survey focused on the state of digital activity in the exhibition industry – finding that the majority of companies are responding to the accelerating process of digitization in the exhibition industry.

In fact a quarter of companies reported that they have developed a digital transformation strategy for the whole company, a fifth have created a designated digital role (Chief Digital Officer, for example) in senior management, particularly in China and Germany.

A fifth of survey participants even claim to have launched digital products not directly

In order to quantify how markets and regions are adapting to the digital challenge, UFI has created ‘UFI DIX – The Digitization Implementation Index of the Exhibition Industry’, which analyzes the degree to which digital tasks have been completed, from 0 (none) to 100 (all).

According to this debut index (2017), the UK, Germany, China and the US are the exhibition markets in which key industry players are most actively engaged in digital transformation.

There are many reasons why highlighting these more advanced digital exhibition environments should matter to potential clients. One of the upshots of digital development is that live events are becoming both more measurable and more cost-effective. Another is that these conversations themselves – as befits today’s marketplace – are increasingly managed and recorded. People want two-way, engaging conversations and by employing digital means to create experiences at every touch point we can empower the live experience, aiding dialogue, increasing the number of valuable leads, even creating

Leaving digital development to one side, we are also seeing the industry expand in more conventional terms. Venue space continues to grow in most regions of the world, and this year UFI charted this growth with its report on the World Map of Exhibition Venues (with a minimum of 5,000 sqm).

In addition to analysing indicators on key regional trends, it lists the largest venues for all 28 markets where total capacity exceeds 200,000 sqm of gross indoor exhibition space.

Main results / Global results The total indoor exhibition space worldwide reaches 34.6 million sqm for the year 2017 and 1,212 venues were identified.

Compared with the last census produced in 2011, this shows a 1.4 % net increase in terms of the number of venues, and + 7.2 % net in terms of exhibition space (+1.2% on average per year).

largest offer (23.7 % of the total world capacity), behind Europe (45 %) and ahead of North America (23.6 %). In addition to adding new space, many venue operators have also made significant investments to upgrade their existing venue capacities.

It is important that the talent base for venue management grows in parallel with this, and education programmes still need to be developed to provide sufficient qualified talent for everyday needs. The evolution of≈ our business is increasingly shaped by a new and younger pool of talent and such programmes enable future leaders to stand out and be noticed.

One thing is for sure, these young leaders will be entering the industry at a time of fresh

challenge and a new definition for what we’ve come to regard as a typical exhibition, if such a thing exists. The ‘blurring of the lines’ between historically separate event formats like exhibitions, congresses, and conferences is continuing and intensifying. Hybrid formats like the Web Summit have evolved – at once a festival, conference and exhibition, while entertainment elements are increasingly expected at B2B events, the product of changing audience demands.

As hybrid business events thrive, we are seeing more collaboration and merging between these new organisers, established association congresses and for-profit exhibition organisers to match these developments.

An industry empowering itself through Digitization and fresh Talent

All of this development is of course taking place against an economic and political backdrop in which, despite political tensions, a rise in protectionism and a perceived fragility of free trade, both the global economy and the exhibition industry as a whole are growing at rates exceeding most forecasts.

While issues such as venue security and complications regarding travel and labour arise from issues such as foreign and domestic policy change arise from life outside our sphere of influence, the exhibition industry remains as valuable to global business as it ever has.

Main results / Indoor exhibition space in 2017: size segmentation Globally, 61 % of the venues have an indoor capacity between 5,000 and 20,000 sqm. One third (34%) of all venues globally belong to the medium-size segment, offering between 20,000 and 100,000 sqm. 61 venues have more than 100,000 sqm; with a growth of 27%, it is the fastest growing market segment.

It depends!

Values, art and brands Art in itself knows no values. It ­depends on the ethical frame of reference. That is why Peiner and Padua decorated the Nazi palaces, while someone like Ernst Walsken was putting his life in danger and enduring great hardship in the concentration camp Börgermoor whenever he used shoe polish to paint on disgarded matchboxes or any other kind of surface he could get his hands on.

Simply put: art has a wide range.

16

|

It depends!

Art has to be seen in context. It is been liberated from being the faithful rendering of the optical, the playing of the most beautiful sound possible or the reproduction of life - as we know it or presume to know it. Of course, art owes this particular liberation to the technologies developed in modern times. Art can make sense, but has no purpose anymore in a free society. Stylish representation of the Divine or Divine-like has been dropped since the Enlightenment. With art, artists can pose questions, which brings them on a par with the scientists. We can confidently push aside the decorative ornament in the 21st century.

Famous artists are brands and they behave as such. Warhol was mass-producing in his Factory Pop-Art, and Beuys knew all too well how to control all his communicative movements.

Bob≈ Wilson and Christoph Schlingensief are and were recognizable. One as an aesthetic stylist, the other as a moralist who “painted” on the canvas of society. Brands are at best good friends and good friends are not without ethos, otherwise they would not be good friends. If you want to work with Bob Wilson, you should also expect an ethos, one that reaches far beyond the aesthetic exterior.

In an anything-goes society in which – thanks to science – the power of the divine has eroded, new frames of reference are needed. People need orientation, that’s how we should interpret the roll-back to the Right which has seized large parts of western societies, some eastern societies, too, whose freedom revolts thirty years ago led them into an orientation-nowhere. The capitalist global market econo-

my is unable to provide either home or orientation. Brands will not work as substitutes for functional families. The advancing digitization will aggravate this problem, because unless we take countermeasures, it will irradicate the frame of reference many people still have in their work. The digital proletariat – growing ever more in number, if algorithms and robots are to take over routine tasks with greater precision at a far cheaper price – is culturally as well as materially addicted.

Some of the corporate leaders of the digital world see the consequences and demand a basic income: they want to ensure that people will continue to be able to afford their goods and services.

But man does not live by bread alone In Matthew 4,4 it is written, “Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that passes through the mouth of God.” Jesus describes a cultural as well as an individual basic need of his time. The cynic Heiner Müller phrases it in his play QUARTET for ours: “Time is the hole in creation and the whole of humanity fits inside it.

For the riff-raff the church filled it with God. We know it is black and bottomless. If the riff-raff finds out, it will stuff us down it.“ So, if brands want to remain meaningful in the future, the leading companies cannot ignore their social responsibility.

Instead of being suspended in a vacuum where, at some point in time, the crucial criteria for success is nothing but the size of the company and the

degree of its monopolistic power, they have to act within ethical co-ordinates aside and beyond the purpose of their business. From art, brands can also learn humility and impose self-restraint.

Ludwig Erhard is turning in his grave Unfortunately, when it comes to accelerating the short-term sale of their own products, world brand companies like VW are completely unaffected by their own corporate values​. When it comes down to it, they won’t even shy away from fraud. These scandals happen again and again, because managers put their own profits before those of the stakeholders. Ludwig Erhard, the founder of the social market economy, meanwhile, is turning in his grave.

18

|

It depends!

An art linked to values ​​can provide orientation when it comes to being a human being.

Brands, on the other hand, provide only orientation when it comes to being a consumer; that is the extent of their achiement as the example of VW shows.

Consumers have not punished VW for its lies and obviously flawed products. However, values ​​will play a bigger role in the future, because they are the crash barriers within which social developments take place.

Ecological and social issues are now linked. They are far reaching and effect the new migration phenomena. There are certain facts, we will not be able to avoid. After Karl Marx and Adam Smith it is time for a new ethics.

The world population has increased tenfold, resources are finite. Companies and brands can be part of a movement that

defines itself beyond infinite growth. Once again, brands are at best good friends and good friends are not without ethics, otherwise they would not be good friends.

The Value of Awards

The Value of Awards Public opinion of design awards is sharply divided.

Some despise them as mere money-machines — frivolous and implausible, while others value them as an instrument for lead acquisition, public relations and recruiting. Although the number of sub­m issions for some formats is declining, new design award programs continue to launch. One such example is the Frame Awards, Frame magazine’s contest honouring the world’s best interiors and spatial design work.1 The promise of design awards still looms large as recognition and prizes are awarded not only by design institutions and associations but also by publishers and even companies them­selves. So, within the discipline of spatial design, how can awards contests maintain their relevance to as many stake­ holders as possible?

Jan Kalbfleisch, managing director of the German asso­ ciation ­FAMAB, believes the relevance of an organiser’s Design Award depends on satisfying three criteria:

1

“You have to be big. You have to be neutral. You have to be respected.”

Big, neutral, respected In a mass of design awards, the only way to guarantee publicity for winners is by achieving a certain size. According to Kalbfleisch, satisfying that criteria means you must be listed in one of the Official Creative Rankings. Neutrality is a prerequisite for credibility and thus for the third criterion of respectability. “The nuts and bolts is a neutral and profes­sional jury”, notes Kalbfleisch.

Participating in awards programs can make sense if you have the opportunity to stand out with distinction from the competition or favorably increase your public perception.

Robert Thiemann, founder of Frame Magazine and the Frame Awards, emphasizes that this is still relevant to the temporary spatial staging industry in particular, “We give designers a platform to get their work seen by expert judges and the world – making their designs

ditor‘s note: After the editorial deadline, the judging phase of the First E Frame Awards was not yet completed. The nominees have been announced but the jury will announce the winners on the 21st of February.

memorable, beyond the trade fair or exhibition.”

Travis Stanton, editor of EXHIBITOR magazine, emphasizes that a design award like the ones offered by the magazine’s Exhibit Design Awards competition has more to offer than just a trophy. “It offers editorial coverage that can extend your brand’s reach to thousands of print and digital readers — many of whom are potential clients.”

Stanton speaks from personal experience. “One of the largest pavilions at Expo 2015 in Milan was designed by a German company because the pavilion’s organizers said they wanted to work with the best. So they looked at the results of our past Expo Awards competitions and chose a firm that had won the Best Pavilion award without even issuing a tender to other companies.”

“The golden age of awards programs is over,” believes Kalbfleisch. “Currently, all major awards are in a phase of rehabilitation. While the ­FAMAB Award is still relevant, we must ask ourselves realistically, will that be true in five years?”

After 21 years, we have seen the final curtain fall on the “traditional award.” An award alone does not make an event anymore, explains the FAMAB CEO. That is why FAMAB, together with the magazine Blach Report, the Best of Events (BOE) trade fair in Dortmund and the Study Institute for Communication, is launching a new format.

The International Festival of Brand Experience will be held for the first time in January 2019 within the framework of the BOE. 22

|

The Value of Awards

The event will be kicked off with a congress on the eve of the fair to highlight relevant industry topics and trends with various formats of interactive orientation such as workshops and bar camps. In the evening, the best work in the industry will be honored with the Brand Experience Award and celebrated at the subsequent party. With the new prize, the competition formats of its initiators merge.

FAMAB is not ready to give up on the future of awards.

The idea of combining added-value and an international focus with a new platform is also being pursued with the newly created Frame Awards.

The ceremony will be held together with an immersive and content-driven event: the Frame Lab. The goal of the Frame Awards is to cover the entire spectrum of non-residential interiors, while the Honorary Awards celebrate the people behind them. “We hope to differentiate ourselves by being a global interior design award with a truly holistic approach,” explains Robert Thiemann and “We want to empower spatial-­ design excellence and set the standard.” A glance at the projects nominated (from 892 submissions from internationally renowned offices of more than 50 countries, www.frameawards. com/nominees) gives the impression that these goals could be achieved with the Awards Show on 21st February.

Awards have a future Travis Stanton is optimistic that awards have a future. “The digital revolution means that you no

longer need to win an award in order to reach potential buyers. Social and corporate media provide a vehicle for design to directly connect with clients. Still, world-class athletes aspire to Olympic gold. Why? Because it represents an objective and respected way of proving that you’re the best of the best.”

Inspiring Projects The main topic “Values” ​​in this worldview edition has prompted us as editors to ask spatial staging professionals for their personal highlights from the industry, in a thematic context. Those interviewed are free to determine what constitutes “value” (this can be sustainability or creative quality, for example) but we also asked them to discuss their opinion on the debate of what constitutes “ethical value.”

The result is a small but exciting mix that we hope to use to rebalance or even expand your personal perspective on the subject of values.

Ocean Plastics Lab: See – Detect – Act

PROJECT Ocean Plastics Lab:

See – Detect – Act Traveling exhibition; started in Turin in September 2017 and has been touring the world ever since; Duration: 3 years

The traveling exhibition Ocean Plastics Lab is dedicated to a topic that is not new, but so very important to keep it in the spotlight — pollution of the oceans from plastic. According to the organizers, around 35 overseas containers of plastic land in the sea every hour. A number that, although widely-known, is shocking.

It is this emotional moment of horror that the exhibition uses to engage visitors. Following the motto “See-Detect-Act”, guests are first confronted with a garbage avalanche which threatens to pour out of one of the four overseas containers into

the public space. After this dramatic start, the participants will be informed at the other stations about the extent and effects of the pollution in order

to ultimately experience the individual potential for action and solution. A beautifully made exhibition on an important topic that touches and involves!

Engelbert Humperdinck’s “Hänsel and Gretel”

PROJECT Engelbert Humper-

dinck’s “Hänsel and Gretel”, staged by Kirill Serebrennikov Opera Stuttgart, premiere: October 22, 2017.

In the context of the current debate on values, we noticed in recent weeks, “Hänsel und Gretel” by Engelbert Humperdinck at the Stuttgart Opera, because the fairytale about hope and distress shows on several levels the necessity of an open discourse on values.

On the one hand, the Russian director Kirill Serebrennikov locates the plot of the more than 120 year-old production in Rwanda, exactly where he would project our present, consumed-guilt feeling; and counteracts the fate of two African children, who are searching for the happiness in the world of department stores after arriving in Stuttgart, within in the context of globali­ zation, thus, representing both material and immaterial values.

On the other hand, the contemporary production stimulates,

above all, the debate on the social, cultural and especially political foundation of values.

Even today, Kirill Serebrennikov sits for alleged embezzlement in Russian pre-trial detention and could not complete his story accordingly.

Since then, the Stuttgart Opera has been demonstrating unrestricted solidarity, campaigning for the Kremlin-critical director and showing him respect by leaving his “non-staging” untouched, and not merely interpreting it through third-­ parties, but instead allowing it to show to others how he had thrived at the time of the arrest.

Stage productions that are used as catalysts for freedom of expression, and thus as anchor points of a debate on values, are not only immensely important in shaking up society, they are also the most culturally valuable projects in the field of spatial staging for us to think about.

The Train of Animals

As before, I see in the Muséum national d’histoire naturelle in Paris a blueprint of scenographic design – an ideal example of scenography.

Here, architecture, sceno­ graphy, content mediation and visitor guidance form a symbiosis. The main production is “The Train of Animals,” which defines

the central atrium. The single object is an eloquent exhibit and, at the same time, an integral part of a large-scale production.

More than 20 years ago, Roberto Benavente redeemed what scenography should be able to do: give contents a form in space and sustainably inform and enthuse the audience with a narrative. Good scenography combines logic and magic.

When the production of ­m eaningful exhibitions, events, and exhibits became a viable industry, commercial artists and others that could draw were in great demand to design these events, places, and spaces.

Over time, technology caused the organizational model for such events to change substantially.

These technological changes forced professionals within the exhibitions and event industry to evolve as well. Today, many design professionals find themselves working in an industry that has become increasingly more experiential. This evolutionary shift has become apparent, causing many members in the field to seek a new kind of professional designer.

Educating the Designer of the Future

In academia, Bemidji State University (BSU) in Minnesota, USA, boasts one of the select few design programs in the world that prepares young designers for the exhibition and event industries. Since the early 1990s, BSU’s Experiential Exhibit Design program has educated a steady stream of qualified designers from all over the world, including students attending from Malaysia, Moldova, China, India, Japan, Uzbekistan, and other international countries. According to Rob Majerowski, VP of Creative at MG Design, “I’ve hired two BSU grads in the last three years… As students, they are constantly meeting a wide variety of industry experts, and I believe that exposure prepares them well for the start of their

career… BSU education reduces the job training and ramp up time. We love the relationship we’ve built with BSU over the years.” In other words, BSU students do not simply digest facts and theories; they learn how to think strategically and creatively from industry experts, preparing them for related design careers following graduation.

To ensure the value of design education and the momentum of BSU’s program, faculty sought to better understand what skills and knowledge are required of future professional experiential designers. Thus, in 2017, faculty from BSU’s Experiential Exhibit Design program conducted research with industry members to define courses and essential competencies required for students to become successful experiential exhibit designers.

Clearly, the new breed of experiential design students will need to learn the design process, as well as all the traditional skills, theories, and creative problem-solving abilities previously taught. However, for now and into the future, these designers will also require a set of skills and knowledge that go beyond the typical scope of design professionals employed today. The research revealed necessary competencies, such as to:

I mplement design thinking to identify human behavior which shapes exhibitions, events, and experiences. nderstand budgeting, U costing, and estimating design projects. e familiar with a broad range B of materials and lighting. nderstand production, U fabrication, and engineering practices. ppreciate and apply the A ethics, rules, and regulations of the industry. now cognitive, social, and K cultural psychology theories related to designing experiences. mploy strong communicaE tion skills, address diverse audiences, and speak articulately to groups of people. nderstand sustainable U building theories and practices. rototype design solutions P through 3D printing or other fabrication processes. nderstand and appreciate U distinctions among and between the exhibitions/ events industries throughout the world.

nderstand and practice U professionalism and business etiquette. nderstand the CAD detailing U process. acilitate experiential F marketing strategy and the important relationship to design. nderstand project manageU ment methodology.

These competencies were revealed through focus groups conducted with members of the design industry.

Faculty from BSU’s Experiential Exhibit Design program translated participants’ interpretations into courses and essential competencies. Thus, these findings serve as foci for multidisciplinary courses in technology, art, design, construction, and business; and they will be used to shape the direction of future curriculum at Bemidji State University. Due to the nature of design education and the needs of the design community, a continuous dialog is vital to the continued success of BSU Design and Bemidji State’s contribution to preparing professional designers now, in the future, and beyond.

Experiences of a two month’ internship Chase Ronaldson from Scan Display ­Solutions, ­D esign Team About his 2 month ­internship at Holtmann Messe & Event GmbH, Hanover, Germany Chase Ronaldson, born and raised in South Africa with a bachelor’s degree in interior design run through a 2 month internship at Holtmann Messe & Event GmbH, based in Hanover Germany. Along with Scan Display Solutions, Holtmann Messe & Event (and many others) are both IFES partners and that is basically where the relationship

between the two companies was founded. In the past, employees from Holtmann were offered a similar position at Scan Display Solutions and so Holtmann allowed me an internship at their company in Langenhagen by Hanover, Germany Work responsibilities/intern program: C hase was introduced as a designer and so he was positioned with the designers.

Furthermore, he was also introduced to the production

teams and was taken through the procedures of some of the current work being done at the time… from when the job had been signed and approved from a client and given to the production team, to the pre building manu­ facture of the stands, to actual build up at the fair grounds and also hand over from production to project manager, to sales team to client.

The main objectives of the internship were to soak in 37

the exhibition industry within Germany and learn the history of the exhibition industry and how Germany became one of the largest exhibition industries in the world in the beginning.

Afterwards he was given the opportunity to design and work with some of the international sales teams… dealing with all English speaking clients from around the world whom had seemed out Holtmann as a partner H e also had the responsibility to assist with the English language and communicating with International clients and to also assist the International marketing material H e spent a couple of days in Hanover’s fair grounds, simply walking around and evaluating the European style of exhibition design, learning what materials are used, what challenges are faced in the manufacture of the stand at the fair ground, engaging with various international and local (German) suppliers of exhibition stands as well as engaging with the clients and getting a feel of what standard is expected as well as delivered.

IFES Global Experiene Exchange

urthermore, he spent a day F in Nuremberg at the Nuremberg fair grounds and again I was shown around at one of the exhibits taking place in order to engage with the designs, seeing what mate­ rials were being used, the styles of all the exhibition stands and how the construction works etc.

Learning Experiences Chase’s comment on the program: I had an absolutely amazing time working and meeting with some of the employees of Holtmann, a few of them even invited me out for dinner and even to their own homes which was an incredible experience as you learn so much from them and their families and I strongly encourage that more.

You also learn then where to go grocery shopping during your stay – you also learn the culture so much better. I was also invited to watch a soccer match and it was just great to experience it all. That said and coming back to the work part of the experience it was just great to see how a company in the same field have different approaches to dealing with a job. I took so much motivation back home and so many

ideas of how one problem that we (Scan Display) may face can be dealt with and so many design ideas…

Germany has a wealth of exhibition history and it opened up my eyes to see what I could bring back and teach others at Scan Display. Holtmann does work slightly different to the way Scan display works, for example the market is different in certain areas, the industry is much bigger and to quote Claus Holtmann (Director), the ‘German exhibition industry has grown so big but has in some way become saturated, and so the market has had to expand internationally which has had to make them follow the trends’… where in South Africa it is still a relatively new industry and is growing very rapidly and I fell the exchange program is very beneficial as it allows companies like Scan Display and Holtmann to become partners on some jobs that happen internationally and therefore we know what to expect and how each other work in order to streamline the process.
