The Subcontracting trade fair will take place from Tuesday, 15 September until Thursday, 17 September 2015 in the Tampere Exhibition and Sports Centre. This year, this leading industrial trade fair in Finland will focus on networking. The seminars and informational briefings led by specialists will deal with the key event themes: sales, marketing, as well as new materials and methods. Another topic to be addressed is the digitalisation of production and the benefits of this for the industrial company.

The importance of partners is increasing

– Traditionally, price has been the major competitive factor for subcontractor networks, and this certainly continues to be true today. Nevertheless, partnership is becoming more important in reshaping industry as the functionality of network relationships and business value creation are based on trust and sharing information. Few companies are able to reach full business efficiency and benefits on their own. A subcontracting network that efficiently utilises digitalisation may be one of the foundations of reshaping industry’s competitive edge, state Managing Director Päivi Myllykangas from Tredea Oy and Senior Partner Kaija Pöysti from InsoSome Oy.
