InnoTrans is an international platform for buyers and sellers of passenger and freight transport technology. InnoTrans has become established as an international industry showplace focusing on Railway Technology.

A full range of rail vehicles are presented in static displays on the Messe Berlin tracks located outside the exhibition halls. Other key InnoTrans features include Railway Infrastructure, Interiors, Public Transport and Tunnel Construction.

The InnoTrans Convention taking place in conjunction with the trade show includes a special Dialog Forum organized by Deutsches Verkehrsforum (German Transport Forum), Verband Deutscher Verkehrsunternehmen (VDV, Association of German Transport Companies), the European Rail Transport Industry Association (UNIFE) and Verband der Bahnindustrie in Deutschland (VDB, German Rail Industry Association). Initiated and organized by Deutsche Bahn AG, the Rail Leaders’ Summit (RLS) offers excellent dialogue opportunities for transport ministries and general managers of international rail transport companies.

The Tunnel Construction segment will be accompanied by International Tunnel Forum featuring a series of discussions with international guest speakers and supported by STUVA (Incorporated Association for Underground Transport Systems).
