October 2023
In 2023, the organizers of the "interlift" welcomed around 19,000 experts from over 110 countries to Augsburg – but for the last time. Shortly before the start, AFAG had announced that the trade fair would change its location. From 2025, the international industry event will be based in Nuremberg. LIFTjournal says goodbye with a large photo gallery.
