Join the #HM16USA conversation today!It has begun! Hannover Messe 2016, the world’s leading industrial technology trade show in Hannover, Germany, runs through April 29. More than 90 U.S. EDOs have joined us in Hall 3 to showcase their locations to the world.

If you aren’t there in person, you can still see, watch, and hear the action. For live updates, follow us and the International Trade Administration on Twitter and use #HM16USA to join in the conversation.

There is a lot of excitement at the show this year. On Sunday night, President Obama became the first sitting U.S. president to attend when he joined German Chancellor Angela Merkel to kick off the show. Watch his (brief) remarks here as he makes a strong pitch for the United States.

This year and for the first time in the show’s history, the United States is the official Partner Country. U.S. exhibitors, from companies to economic development organizations, are receiving unparalleled attention from potential business partners, buyers, and investors.
