The key industrial exhibition for the Balkans and Eastern Europe, MachTech&InnoTech Expo, will be held from October 6 to 9 in the Bulgarian capital Sofia. This was announced by the team of the organizer - Inter Expo Center, which is actively preparing this year's edition of the business format, which has established itself over the past 10 years as important for companies with a sustainable presence in the region and for companies interested in entering the market.
The 17th edition of MachTech&InnoTech will unite industry, the metalworking segment, machinery and technologies. From October 6 to 9, the halls of Inter Expo Center will be the subject of interest in robots, robotic systems, software and niche AI solutions, collaborative robots for material transfer, metal-cutting and metalworking machines, hardening and heat treatment machines, hydraulics, pneumatics, innovations in machine design, electronics, 3D and laser technologies, specialized marketing and advertising solutions.
Business opportunities and the ecosystem for implementing innovations make MachTech&InnoTech Expo a valuable international event for startups, start-ups, established companies, managers and owners of global businesses, owners of small and start-up companies. The parallel holding of INTER DRONE EXPO - the exhibition for drones, unmanned technologies, cybersecurity and AI will also be valuable for everyone. The format advocates technologies closely related to the industrial sector and creates prospects for business development in new product and market niches.
Presence from several continents
The presence of MachTech&InnoTech in Sofia is key both because of the opportunity to discover current and future trends and innovations, and to create new contacts. This is facilitated by the presence of companies and visitors from dozens of countries from several continents. The last edition brought together in the halls of Inter Expo Center over 210 exhibitors from Bulgaria, Romania, Greece, Austria, Turkey, Poland, Ukraine, China, Slovenia, Israel, Hungary, Germany, Japan, Norway. The brands presented were over 600, and the International Exhibition Center was visited by over 16,000 people.
This year's edition promises an even richer accompanying program. In 2025 we witnessed over 30 events within the framework of MachTech&InnoTech Expo and INTER DRONE EXPO – visionary formats for the future of industry, the benefits of drones, unmanned technologies, robots, AI and 3D technologies, professional conferences, discussions, lectures, presentations, demonstrations. Among the formats were Industrial Tech Forum, Drone Expo Summit, Inter Drone Expo Expert Forum and an impressive Demo Zone gathered young innovators and their concepts and innovations.
