The trade fair for optical technologies, components and systems Optatec is cancelled. This was announced by the organizer P.E. Schall. The next Optatec will take place in Frankfurt from the 17th through the 19th of May, 2022, as scheduled.

"All of the prerequisites were met for the optical technology industry to come together for its traditional trade fair meeting in Frankfurt this November", says Bettina Schall, managing director of P. E. Schall. Many exhibitors were also eagerly awaiting the start of the trade fair on November 17. However, the current increase in corona virus infection figures has led the promoters to the conclusion that they should refrain from holding the trade fair.
