In a written statement, the Ottawa-based organization said the two entities will begin their collaboration with CanWEA 2014, which is slated to be held 27-29 October 2014 at the Palais des Congrès de Montréal in Montréal, Québec.
Deutsche Messe's participation will be through its North American subsidiary, Hannover Fairs USA.
“Deutsche Messe has a phenomenal track record over many years in producing conferences and exhibitions on wind energy and related themes,” said Robert Hornung, President of CanWEA.
“Partnering with such a globally respected trade event management organization allows CanWEA to enhance the scope of our conference programming, the diversity of our conference exhibitors and delegates, and increase our reach internationally,” he said.
HFUSA President and CEO Larry Turner said Deutsche Messe’s partnership with CanWEA represents a further investment in its parent company's growing global energy event platform, as well as an important strategic business initiative. “
CanWEA’s strong reputation and wind energy expertise in the Canadian market is a tremendous addition to our North American industrial trade events and another opportunity to leverage HANNOVER MESSE’s extensive global network,” he said.
Next year marks the 30th anniversary of the CanWEA Annual Conference and Exhibition. Each year, the event brings together almost 2,000 delegates and more than 150 exhibiting companies from around the world to discuss opportunities in Canada’s emerging wind energy industry.
