About Potato Europe
Potato Europe is an international trade fair which intends to expand specialist knowledge. It also aims to promote networking and sales in the industry. The fair additionally helps companies gain recognition and encourage innovation.
To achieve its goals, Potato Europe Messe features an extensive event programme. The schedule includes many 60-minute conferences and presentations. During these lectures, attendees can learn about new technologies or trends. These conferences and discussions feature leading figures or specialists from universities as speakers. The fair’s program additionally includes events that encourage networking between attendees. Among them are pre-planned one-to-one on-site meetings between company representatives. Potato Europe’s schedule also features live demonstrations of machines and field trials. This allows visitors to examine a new product or plant species before buying it.
Potato Europe Messe also includes the Innovation Award Ceremony. During the Ceremony, nominated innovations can receive a prize for their contribution. There is also Talent Scouting. This is a specialised platform for introducing students to the business world. Such introductions are done via the student receiving an internship or job position. The Innovation Awards and Talent Scouting can help start-ups in gaining recognition. For example, the platform can help them procure new employees or contractors.

Dear Tom,
We had a good stay. The hotel is clean and people are friendly and helpful but it is really very old fashioned! The furniture and decoration 1970, could become very fancy again in a few years maybe? I recommend to take your own body wash etc with you while theirs isn't good quality. Breakfast is very correct Have a nice day and I will certainly contact you again for a next fair.
Best regards

I'm not positive how I stumbled across "Travel to Fairs Limited", but I'm so glad I did. A simple request for traveling advice turned into a fantastic planning experience. My first point of contact (Via telephone) was from Ms. Ellie Stone. From that point forward I worked solely with her. My plans were extremely complex and Ellie was there for me the entire time. Flying from the United States, traveling to four separate cites in three European countries seemed daunting. After a few questions and some conversation, Ellie was able to give me multiple hotel options in each city. Ms. Stone even divided each hotel by their amenities. (Included breakfast/bars/public transport etc.) In addition to her thorough help with hotel accommodations, Ellie also booked three (3) separate flights for me. Germany to Denmark to Poland. For each city/destination, Ellie offered no fewer than 3 options for accommodations. Same for my flight options. Each destination had three choices. Different airlines and different departure times so I could manage my travel easily. The communication between Ellie and myself was excellent. With the time change between us, emails worked perfectly. Ellie was very attentive to my needs and responded to my questions/inquiries quickly. On more than a few occasions, when I called her office, she took the time to answer me right away. I would love to extend my gratitude and genuine "thanks" to Ellie. Dare I say... she made this experience fun. 5 STARS !!! Her company should be grateful to have her working there.

Hi Christine,
your support and professionality has been very appreciated by us. Always available and ready to answer.
Hotel rooms were not that good at least the standard room was too small and old and very noisy as well; bed not comfortable. I guess that for that price at least superior rooms should be the perfect deal with an hotel like that. Good position close to metro and exhibition very easy to reach. As well not so far from center. Receptionists were not so prepared as they always ask to pay our already included breakfast and their german or english language wasn't always that good.
Hope for a better deal next time!
