European Heat Pump Summit 2023: Presentation proposals now being accepted
The international heat pump community is very much looking forward to autumn: On 24 and 25 October 2023, the 8th European Heat Pump Summit will take place at the Exhibition Centre Nuremberg in its customary format of congress with accompanying foyer expo. Bridging the gap between the biennial Chillventa exhibition, it provides an important discussion platform on the latest market developments, R&D topics, and trends in heat pump applications. Effective immediately, prospective speakers can submit their proposed presentation topics and find out about other options for participating.
“This is an event where heat pump and component manufacturers, especially the latter, come into closer contact with their users than at any other industry gathering. We are delighted that we are once again able to provide the platform for a highly innovative, cutting-edge sector and make Nuremberg the venue for professional dialogue and excellent products and innovations from all areas of heat pump production and application,” says Elke Harreiss, Director European Heat Pump Summit at NürnbergMesse. It’s where researchers, technicians, product developers, decision-makers and consulting engineers, component manufacturers and suppliers, (building services) designers and architects, and operators of heat pumps come together with international experts and acclaimed speakers.
