Messe München and IFAT Cooperate on the GreenTec Awards

30.04.2015

The GreenTec Awards made a big impression at the last IFAT in 2014, when they were presented in a Gala Night at the start of Munich´s leading world exhibition for environmental technologies.

This successful cooperation is now being continued: In the IFAT years of 2016 and 2018, the GreenTec Awards will be presented in Munich, and in 2015 and 2017, in Berlin—where Messe München will be acting as a platinum sponsor for Europe´s most prestigious environmental and business awards.

Stefan Rummel, Managing Director of Messe München, is very satisfied with this long-term arrangement: "The philosophy of the GreenTec Awards, and in particular the achievements of the winners, just fit very well with the standards upheld at IFAT. In return the GreenTec Awards benefit from the high standing of IFAT, our flagship for the environmental technology sector."

Marco Voigt, one of the initiators of the GreenTec Awards, is also pleased with this partnership: "IFAT is the optimum event at which to present the GreenTec Awards. It is the right context for us, as regards content, and it is a place where we can reach out directly to an international target audience that is interested in actively promoting innovative environmental technologies."

On May 29 this year the 2015 GreenTec Awards will be presented in the Tempodrom in Berlin. In 2016, there will again be a gala award ceremony to kick off IFAT, which takes place from May 30 to June 3, 2016 at the Messe München exhibition center.
