iENA Nuremberg, the International Trade Fair for Ideas, Inventions and New Products, will showcase innovations from around the world 31 October-3 November 2019, with Croatia this year becoming an official partner of the tradefair in the North Bavarian city.
Creative types, innovators and inventors come to Nuremberg for the annual event which, for 70 years, has seen around 30,000 inventions presented. For the 2019 edition, 800 inventions are expected.
The iENA offers a platform of support in all stages of development, from the initial idea and creation of a prototype through to market launch, marketing and company formation.
Key partners of the iENA include the International Federation of Inventors’ Associations (IFIA), the German Patent and Trade Mark Office, the Association of German Engineers (VDI) as well as the German Inventors’ Association (DEV) and other national and international inventors’ associations.
This year the Union of Croatian Innovators (UCI), under the highest auspices of Ministry of Economy, Entrepreneurship and Crafts of the Republic of Croatia and State intellectual property office of the Republic of Croatia, are partnering the show.
Igor Dujmovic from the UCI is excited about the partnership: “Croatian innovators and entrepreneurs have recognised the importance of iENA since the 1970’s as an event that allows for visibility and affirmation for so-called ‘small’ innovation environments or innovative individuals.”
Over 90% of the displayed inventions will be presented to the public for the first time at the iENA which this year takes place in exhibition hall 3C of the Nuremberg Exhibition Centre in parallel with the Consumenta tradefair.
