opti 2022: Event Report

After the break due to the pandemic, the optical industry had some catching up to do at opti held in Munich from May 13 to 15, 2022.

Around 13,000 visitors from 71 countries did not miss the opportunity to attend the spring opti. According to the visitor survey, the objective of close to three quarters of trade visitors was to exchange ideas with industry colleagues and to initiate business relationships.

Dieter Dohr, Chairman of the opti organiser GHM Gesellschaft für Handwerksmessen, said about the special edition: “The opti 2022 is first and foremost an emotional experience. Finally, a trade show again! The conditions were not easy, and we are delighted to see how many have deliberately chosen the May edition. Visitors, exhibitors, trade show specialists – the focus was on bringing together all the stakeholders in opti and conducting exchanges between everyone.”

368 exhibitors from 25 countries used the opti as an opportunity to present collections, products and services, to get feedback and a sense of current market needs.

Throughout the four halls of the opti, the exchanges were clearly noticeable. Getting hands on innovative glasses designs, experiencing the latest technology, understanding trends and their full implications.

Looking forward to the next opti in January 2023.
