Responding to requests for change from many exhibitors, and after discussions with the 6855 European Machine Vision Association (EMVA), Messe Stuttgart has decided to move the Vision to a biennial cycle with immediate effect, which means that the Vision exhibition will take place in 2014.

The reason for this change is attributed to the fact that, although the show had been successful for many years, this success was in jeopardy due to the change of date from November to September and the fact that some major exhibitors had already decided not to participate in 2013.

EMVA is aware that for a large number of vision companies all across Europe, Vision is the major platform to present their products to an international audience.  It will focus on measures to fill the gap and provide a platform of support for its members and aims, with Messe Stuttgart, to make Vision 2014 even more successful.
