"The MASMICRO exhibition at the Hannover Messe has been a great success, thanks to the organisation team and all partners who have provided input to the MASMICRO booth, booklet, flyers, data sheet, etc ... Especially for those who brought hardware to the event (ASC, UAR, CTR, UPV, ROB, IPA), your hard work is greatly appreciated. For those who stood there to represent MASMICRO for days, your efforts are also much appreciated."
