The alignment and partnership of NPCA and Vincentz will allow them to co-brand
and market the events together, offer unique opportunities for companies
attending and exhibiting at both events and create a transatlantic scientific
exchange. Ultimately, the industry will benefit from
alternating spring shows in the United States and Europe. Their belief is
that this will allow for better long-term business planning by all
industry participants. “This will be the must-attend event for the industry,
providing inspiration as well as networking and business opportunities”, said
Andrew J. Doyle, President of the NPCA.
The American Coatings Show will be hosted on alternate years to the ECS at a
dedicated location, which is in response to the direct and long-desired request
by the American coatings industry, and thus provides an opportunity for
long-term planning. Vincentz Network, along with Nürnberg Messe, has
considerable experience and expertise in organizing the ECS – a proven success
story that has shown phenomenal growth over the years.
