News » 23.09.2026 - IPM Essen 2027 to offer delegation trips for the first time

Personal exchange with international partners is becoming increasingly important for the horticultural industry. Presenting products, concepts and innovations offers valuable opportunities to explore new markets, establish contacts and tap into long-term business potential. This is precisely where IPM Essen 2027 comes in: With a new international delegation program, the world's leading trade fair for horticulture brings together decision-makers from key and emerging markets with exhibitors from the green sector.

"IPM Essen unites global supply and demand in one place. With the new delegation program, we are systematically expanding this matchmaking function and creating additional opportunities to connect international IPM participants with one another. This is how personal encounters lead to new projects and long-term partnerships," explains Oliver P. Kuhrt, CEO of Messe Essen.

The delegation program is aimed at international trade associations and industry organizations as well as political institutions and economic development agencies from all over the world. Participants can look forward to a varied, individually tailored program that goes far beyond a conventional trade fair visit.

In addition to an official reception and a guided exhibitor tour of IPM Essen, the agenda includes various networking events. The program also offers the opportunity to visit horticultural businesses, breeders, nurseries and garden centers in North Rhine-Westphalia. These visits provide valuable practical insights and create opportunities for discussions, new contacts and international networking.
