Warning about dubious address brokers
Dubious companies are currently trying to sell exhibitor and visitor lists at our trade fairs as well as entries in trade fair directories. Sometimes the logos of our events are even used illegally.
Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH (HMC) never passes on its exhibitor and visitor contact lists to third parties without express consent and has no business relationship whatsoever with these providers.
Our official partner for catalog and media entries as well as digital marketing is NEUREUTER FAIR MEDIA GmbH.
