The outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has strongly impacted developments in Russia. Following the directives of the Government of the city and region of Moscow to prevent and control the virus from spreading, Messe München was compelled to postpone bauma CTT RUSSIA, which was planned to take place in May. The new date has been set now. The trade fair will be held from September 8 to 11, 2020 at Crocus Expo in Moscow.
The measures taken by the Moscow City Government against the spread of coronavirus will apply for the time being until 10 April. In view of this development, “the postponement is the logical consequence”, explains Stefan Rummel, Managing Director of Messe München: “We are thus giving our customers, exhibitors, visitors and partners of bauma CTT RUSSIA planning security. Their health is our top priority. We are now looking ahead confidently and working with our national and international partners from the construction industry to organize a successful bauma
CTT RUSSIA 2020 in September.”
Sergey Alexandrov, Managing Director of Messe München Rus, explains: “We are taking the spread of the coronavirus very seriously and have been monitoring the local situation closely. Based on current developments, we are confident that by setting the new date we will create good conditions for staging bauma CTT RUSSIA.” After intense communication with the exhibitors, Sergey Alexandrov believes that “despite the current uncertainties, the importance of bauma CTT RUSSIA remains intact. There is still a great demand for participating and we have
the commitment of most of our exhibitors to follow our decision.”
