IndX at Hannover Messe! 💡 IndX project manager Robin Eriksson was on the ground at Hannover Messe, one of the world’s leading industrial technology events. Representing IndX and our seven industrial partners, Robin connected with a wide range of startups and scaleups within Industry 4.0, smart manufacturing, operational innovation, the service market, and supply chain technology. 💡One finding: hydrogen was a major theme throughout a large portion of the electrification — reflecting Germany’s strong push in this direction, notably through BMW’s focus on hydrogen solutions over electrification in some areas. Sweden also had a strong presence led by Tomas Bennich, who also leads the yearly CES delegation, with partners Teknikföretagen, Electrification Hub and KPMG - great to see all the people and relevant meetings that we can achieve. 🇨🇦 A particular highlight was Canada’s impressive presence, as partner country, showcasing hundreds of innovative companies and underlining the strong bonds between Canada and Sweden. The Canadian delegation also hosted one of the most memorable after-hours events — complete with a DJ, Canadian artists, and even a great dose of Swedish music. 🇨🇦 🇸🇪 This collaboration spirit is also seen in IndX’s close partnership with the Canadian Trade Commissioner Service, the Canadian Embassy in Stockholm, and Uffe Galsgaardård, helping us consistently discover and bring forward highly relevant Canadian startups to our Swedish industrial partners.
