The global virtual live event's primary goal is to bring people, ideas and technology together to explore opportunities for collaboration and establish new contacts. A strong focus is on innovative matchmaking opportunities.

Making new business contacts and discussing current trends with industry experts worldwide has been dearly missed in recent months. ACHEMA Pulse is a new digital format supplementing ACHEMA and AchemAsia and serving the global process industries. The two-day event will offer what industry experts and decision-makers are looking for: Highly inspirational talks and panels streamed from live stages in Frankfurt and a focussed congress programme covering trends and developments from all sectors of the chemical and pharmaceutical industry. ACHEMA exhibitors showcase their technologies and solutions on the digital platform, supplemented by videos, presentations and workshops. An algorithm-based matchmaking technology enables participants to meet the contacts they are actively looking for and make new connections suggested based on their profile. With the integrated communication tools, establishing common ground is easy, comfortable and fast. The organizers intend  ACHEMA Pulse the become the most-interactive digital event for the process industry to date.

CEO Thomas Scheuring is optimistic that ACHEMA Pulse will be a valuable addition to this year’s digital event agenda: “With ACHEMA Pulse we will capture the unique essence of ACHEMA bringing innovative ideas and a very diverse technology and service spectrum to the movers and shakers of the global process industry”. ACHEMA Pulse is an event designed for the virtual environment and based on the organizers' extensive experience. Co-CEO and Head of the ACHEMA Pulse project Björn Mathes adds: “The Pulse platform will stray far beyond the traditional limits of digital tradeshows. Our aim is to create a unique learning and networking environment that is fun and easy to do business on”. ACHEMA Pulse builds on the strengths inherent to an online format with timetables that allow for the attendance of high-ranking speakers from all over the world and a truly global audience.

"Out-of-the-box" approaches are encouraged, especially in sessions focussing on innovation, such as the finals of the ACHEMA Innovation Challenge or the presentation of the finalists of the ACHEMA Startup Award.

The platform and its opportunities will be presented in several webcasts over the coming weeks. “One week into launch, it looks like we are well on our way” says Andreas Konert, Head of Business Development and Sales. “Early feedback from exhibitors is highly encouraging and the webinars for interested exhibitors are filling up fast”, he adds.
