NürnbergMesse Fima Exhibition (Hangzhou) Co., Ltd. – a joint venture between NürnbergMesse China Co., Ltd. and Hangzhou Fima Exhibition Co., Ltd., was officially registered in Hangzhou in December 2025.
The partnership follows the signing of a strategic cooperation agreement at the opening ceremony of RACC CHINA 2025 on October 23, 2025, in Hangzhou. This milestone marks a deepened commitment to the Asian market and signifies the launch of the Chillventa Global Network – a connected ecosystem linking Europe, China, and Southeast Asia.
The joint venture is founded on a shared vision for sustainable growth and global integration within the refrigeration industry. It draws on NürnbergMesse Group’s world-class exhibition management expertise, global brand influence, and the success of Chillventa, one of the world’s leading HVAC&R trade fairs.
Complementing this is Hangzhou Fima’s in-depth knowledge of the Chinese market, extensive industrial chain resources, and proven track record in organizing RACC CHINA.
By integrating international standards, global networks, and decades of exhibition expertise with strong local operational capabilities, the partnership creates a powerful bridge between European innovation, Chinese manufacturing, and Southeast Asia’s rising market demand – helping businesses worldwide access the fastest-growing regions through a unified, high-quality exhibition ecosystem.
