opti 2017 offered its 27,500 national and international trade visitors and 557 exhibitors from 35 countries many new experiences. In return, opti received top reviews from 95% of surveyed visitors – an evaluation that was reflected in the relaxed and happy atmosphere in the four trade show halls. According to first projections – which do not include the trade show’s follow-up business – the trade show visitors ordered products with a value of €163 million for the first quarter.
opti 2017 placed a focus on the connection from pre-measurement to refraction, on consultancy software, on ordering glasses, and on grinding the lenses. 86% of the visitors were happy about this year’s thematic focus “OPTIC 4.0 – Digital Solutions”, since they classified digitalization as “very important” for the industry.
More than 30 companies presented new developments in the areas of phoropters, keratoscopes, fundus cameras, or industry software.
The next opti will take place from Friday, January 12 to Sunday, January 14, 2018, in Munich. In addition to the traditional four trade show halls C1 to C4, Hall B4 will also be used.
