MSV 2026 unveils its first confirmed exhibitors and programme highlights. This October, it will once again bring industry and business together under one roof

Together with five specialised trade fairs held regularly every two years, MSV will present a cross-section of key sectors – from machining and forming through plastics, welding and foundry technology to surface treatment technologies. It is precisely this concentration of sectors in one place that makes MSV an ideal platform for cross-sector collaboration and the sharing of know-how.

Focus on Digitalisation, 3D Printing and the Defence Industry

MSV 2026 will focus on technological trends that are shaping industrial production today. The Digital Factory 2.0 project will continue, presenting solutions for increasing business efficiency – from the use of artificial intelligence and automation to advanced digital tools.

This area will also feature DIGI STAGE, with interviews, case studies and panel discussions on topics driving the industry. The programme will also include 3D Expo, the country's largest event focused on professional 3D printing and additive manufacturing. Following its successful launch last year, the DEFENCEO conference, connecting mechanical engineering with the defence and security industry, will also return on Wednesday, 7 October.

An Ambitious Space for Robotics

Following the successful debut of the ROBOTY at MSV project in 2025, a joint exhibition focused on robotics, automation and related technologies will once again be created in Hall P this year. The project will build on the concept that last year brought robot manufacturers, system integrators, component suppliers, professional organisations and media together in one space, offering visitors not only technology demonstrations but also live podcasts, guided tours with commentary and an expert accompanying programme. A new addition will be the Robots in Mechanical Engineering expert conference, which on Thursday, 8 October will offer case studies, experiences from manufacturing companies and a discussion on how robotics is changing under the influence of artificial intelligence, labour shortages and growing demands for production flexibility.

Industrial Design and Innovation

Industrial design is an increasingly discussed topic in technical disciplines. At the International Engineering Fair, an independent jury of experts in this field, together with DesignCentrum CzechTrade, will present the MSV Industrial Design Awards for the third time.  Together, they will recognise the best innovations combining aesthetics with functionality.

You still have the opportunity to register your company for the trade fair online. Visitor ticket sales and registration of company invitations will open in the coming days.
