formnext advisory board members.
This month, the formnext powered by tct Exhibitor Advisory Board was founded as a platform to exchange ideas and highlight industry trends that will continue to build the Frankfurt-event as the leading exhibition for product development and manufacturing.
Chaired by Rainer Lotz, managing director of Renishaw GmbH, Germany, the body comprises CEOs and exhibition managers from prominent companies and organisations in additive manufacturing, tool and form-making, and other areas of industrial product development and manufacturing.
Through the exhibitor advisory board, Mesago Messe Frankfurt GmbH – the company that organises formnext in partnership with Rapid News Communications and TCT + Personalize – has ensured that the spirited exchange of ideas with its target industries will remain a fixture of this international exhibition and conference.
“Since we started putting formnext together, we’ve been in close contact with numerous companies and other organisations,” explains Sascha F. Wenzler, Vice President of formnext at Mesago Messe Frankfurt. “The exhibitor advisory board is a continuation of this fruitful collaboration on an even deeper level.”

- Dr. Kristian Arntz, Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology (IPT)
