Alexander Fliess
Geschäftsführer Hermann Fliess & Co. GmbH
"As early as 1950, Friedrich Fliess, with the help of the DVS and the SLV, brought together electrode manufacturers and the specialist public in a former pigsty in Duisburg. This resulted in the first "SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN" in the Gruga Hall 2 years later. Thus, the fair has been a valuable platform for us to meet national and intentional customers for decades. This personal exchange is still a central part of "SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN" today. As a member of the advisory board, I am pleased to be able to continue to help shape the "SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN"."

It is up to us - as employees on the trade show advisory board and, of course, as exhibitors - to make an attractive offer for our visitors."
