drupa 2008, Solving a Complex Puzzle: An Interview with Werner M. Dornscheidt

Q: When will the final number of exhibitors be known?
Dornscheidt: We know right now that the current figure of 1,800 will increase, partly because a lot of exhibitors are combined in applications from the Ministries of Economic Affairs of individual countries. They won’t be listed as separate exhibitors until the building layouts have been finalized. We can’t announce the actual number until September 2007 because of the planning and allocation process.
