With just a few days remaining until the doors open, iVT Expo is preparing to welcome the global industrial vehicle technology community to Köln Messe on June 10 & 11, for what promises to be Europe’s best event for industrial vehicle technology and off-highway innovation.
Bringing together OEMs, engineers, suppliers and technology specialists from across construction, mining, agriculture, material handling and forestry, iVT Expo offers visitors a focused opportunity to discover the latest advances shaping the next generation of industrial vehicles. From electrification and autonomy to hydraulics, thermal management, connectivity and digitalization, the event showcases the technologies driving the industry forward.
Running alongside iVT Expo is the Off-Highway Evolution Conference, a two-day event exploring the technologies that are shaping the next generation of off-highway vehicles. Delegates will be updated on technical, operational and commercial considerations that OEMs and suppliers are facing in off-highway sectors such as construction, mining, agriculture and materials handling.
Session highlights include:
- Key technologies for off-highway autonomy
Thomas Pohlmann, senior strategy advisor at InMach Intelligente Maschinen, will examine the technologies supporting autonomous operation in future off-highway vehicles. With autonomy presenting significant market potential worldwide, the presentation will explore how automation solutions are being developed for demanding industrial vehicle applications.
Visitors will also be able to experience the iVT Live Zone, following its successful launch in 2025. Situated on the show floor, the Live Zone will host discussions, interviews and interactive sessions focused on the technologies and trends transforming industrial vehicles.
“iVT Expo offers a unique opportunity to see the latest technologies in one place, meet face to face with leading suppliers, and gain insights from industry experts,” said iVT Expo event director Ram Seira, “It provides practical solutions and strategic perspective. The combination of exhibition, conference content and networking makes it a highly efficient and valuable event to attend.”
Registration for iVT Expo 2026 remains open, with expo entry available for industry professionals. One- and two-day conference passes are also still available for those wishing to access the full technical conference program – with a special discount available for OEMs.
