The popularity of the trade show at the new location is very high: a good eight months before the event, there are only a few remaining booths. The organizer is currently examining the option of expanding the hall space. Large and small companies such as Jenoptik, OptoTech, Fisba, DOPA, WZW Optic AG, TNO, LASOS, Layertec, JAT Jenaer Antriebstechnik, POG, Fraunhofer IOF, Spaceoptix, Acktar, SIOS, BATOP, Materion Balzers Optics, PI Physik Instrumente, Mersen and IMT will present their products and services on site.
In addition to long-time professional partners such as Photonics Germany, IVAM and SpectroNet, new participants – besides OptoNet e.V. – include the tridelta campus Hermsdorf and the ThZM Thuringian Center for Mechanical Engineering and others.
As in Wetzlar, there will be a free accompanying conference in Jena, the en-tech.talks. The "Call for Papers" is now open here.
"We are very pleased to be able to bring the W3+ Fair to Jena. We see great potential for resident companies and the region: the interdisciplinary networking will strengthen both," explains Nora Kirsten, Managing Director of OptoNet e.V..
"We have had our eye on the location for a long time, but the great demand for the "W3+ Fair Jena" format now makes us very happy. The support and commitment from industry and networks is tremendous. Together we will create an innovative marketplace for enabling technologies in Jena," adds Jörg Brück, Project Director at organizer Fleet Events.

About the W3+ Fair
The event traces its roots back to an industry imitative organised in Wetzlar and Mittelhessen, and its objective is to interlink the four sectors of optics, photonics, electronics and mechanics. The aim is that new interfaces and points of contact will pave the way for forward-looking technologies. The trade fair debuted at the Rittal Arena in Wetzlar in February 2014. The W3+ Fair is organised by the Hamburg-based company, FLEET Events (www.fleet-events.de). In September 2019, the W3+ Fair Rhine Valley celebrated its premiere in the four-county region. In 2023, the organizer is expanding its portfolio to include the W3+ Fair Jena
