In doing so, IZB is responding to the increasing interconnection of industries and the profound transformation of the mobility and technology landscape.
As one of Europe’s leading trade fairs for the automotive supply industry, IZB brings together international companies, decision-makers and innovation partners from industry, technology and mobility. Today, however, the challenges and opportunities of the future can no longer be addressed within a single sector alone. Innovation is increasingly emerging at the intersection of different industries and this is exactly where the new Cross Industry Area comes in.
The Cross Industry Area offers companies outside the traditional automotive sector the opportunity to showcase their technologies, products and solutions to an international expert audience and to initiate new collaborations. The aim is to actively foster exchange between industries and create new perspectives for the mobility and industry of tomorrow.
The new area will focus in particular on the following topics:
- Urban Technology
- Security & Defence
- Health & Medical Technology
- Circular Economy
With this new format, IZB 2026 is creating a dedicated space for innovation, networking and forward-looking partnerships. The Cross Industry Area aims to bring together companies whose ideas and technologies are driving sustainable, smart and resilient industrial and mobility solutions.
