From May 26 to 28, Ukraine hosted the 24th International Industrial Forum—the country’s largest and most prestigious industrial exhibition. Since 2005, this event has been officially certified and recognized by the Global Association of the Exhibition Industry (UFI), confirming its highest international status.
This year, the forum traditionally brought together Ukraine’s leading industrial enterprises, as well as representatives from neighboring and distant foreign countries. The event’s program included specialized exhibitions in the fields of mechanical engineering, metalworking, and related industries, where the latest technologies, equipment, tools, and components were showcased. In addition to the exhibition, participants took part in a packed program of scientific and practical conferences, seminars, and business presentations.
Synergy Among Leaders and Development of Export Potential
Representatives of the “ZED” Association of Exporters and Importers attended this large-scale event, for whom the forum served as an effective platform for strengthening business ties and strategic planning with partners.
In particular, the “ZED” Association delegation had the honor of meeting with long-standing colleagues from the “Energozvyazok” Scientific and Technical Center. For many years, the Association has been providing comprehensive professional assistance to the “Energozvyazok” Scientific and Technical Center in bringing its own high-tech products to foreign markets and promoting them there. The current meeting provided an opportunity to take stock of their joint work and outline new export directions.
On the sidelines of the forum, representatives of the “ZED” Association also met with colleagues from the well-known Ukrainian company “Storozhuk” (UASTAL), which is one of the leading players in the metalworking and steel structure manufacturing market.
The participants unanimously noted that holding the International Industrial Forum in Ukraine, even during challenging times, demonstrates the strong vitality of Ukrainian manufacturing, stimulates innovation, and opens up new opportunities for domestic exporters on the global stage.
