About CAE-Messe
CAE-Messe organizes the CAE joint booth of the CAE-Forum network at trade fairs in Germany. It is operated by pike engineering from Hamburg, led by Dirk Pieper. Since 2013, the joint booth has offered exhibitors at major trade fairs such as the Hannover Messe more visibility than an individual booth. The topics include numerical simulation (CAE), 3D visualization with augmented and virtual reality, and additive manufacturing (3D printing) — key disciplines of digitalization and Industry 4.0. The concept consists of an exhibition area and a dedicated CAE-Forum stage with presentations, panel discussions and exclusive company blocks. In addition, individual CAE-guided tours at trade fairs and the CAE-JOBS job board are offered.
