The statistics on automatica 2022 confirm the leading position of the world's leading exhibition for smart automation and robotics. But the most convincing sign of a successful exhibition after four years without in-person events due to the pandemic cannot be quantified at all: the lighthearted and inspiring atmosphere in the halls.
