Flexibility, attractiveness and eventization are the emerging requirements for innovative event formats.
The fusion of conference and exhibition, the staging of topics through a more compelling variety of experiences, the digital presentation of hybrid trade fairs through the use of sophisticated media technology and modern IT infrastructure:
That’s what Confex is all about!
Koelnmesse’s declared goal is to durably establish one of the world’s most attractive inner-city exhibition centers and thereby continue to provide the ideal setting for successful trade fairs, events and congresses in the future. Koelnmesse is therefore planning significant investments in the future of the grounds and in the trade fair program. A key component in this regard is Confex.
Entry level / ConfexhallWith a total capacity of 4,330 people and an architecture focused on maximum functionality, the Confexhall is the real star of Confex.
Conference level 1From the large Confexhall to smaller rooms: Level 1 offers 10 meeting rooms on another level above the northwest side of the Confexhall. The size varies from around 27 m² to just under 100 m², and the room height is 3.50 m in each room.
Conference level 2Meetings with a view: On the top conference level, a number of other meeting and conference rooms stretch around the Confexhall. The floor space of the large conference rooms is around 200 m², while the 8 meeting rooms offer between 60 and 90 m².
Confex impresses with its scalable size. It is integrated into one of the world’s largest exhibition centers. Confex can be expanded at any time to include additional rooms, halls and areas – for maximum flexibility in capacity planning.
The award-winning digital signage is an orientation and information system with highly attractive staging options in high-end quality.
The flexible information system combines navigation, infotainment and advertising. Exhibitors, guests and participants are guided through the Confex in a flexible and situation-specific manner and thus quickly reach their destination. The system also includes event information, weather, traffic and train information, animations, room plans, large-format advertising spaces and much more.
High-performance networks at the exhibition center guarantee a wealth of future options, including 5G technology, indoor navigation and smart venues, to name just a few. In addition, there is a wealth of on-demand digital service offerings.
The prerequisites are in place. With its own state-of-the-art flexible green-screen studio – or the alternative mobile unit. For productions anywhere, anytime within Confex.
This eliminates the boundaries between analog and digital, and makes everything possible: from digitally broadcast press conferences to the feed for product presentations at the trade fair booth, to networked hybrid conferences.
