The community summit will take place on a yearly basis at its alternating locations Dusseldorf and Stuttgart from this day forward.
Holding the trade fair in Cologne had originally been the intention of the organiser, yet the decision was finally made in favour of Düsseldorf as the new location in North Rhine-Westphalia. "Holding the Zukunft Kommune at the trade hall in the provincial capital brings about a great deal of advantages," commented project manager from the organiser spring Messe Management Jens Kremer. The high density of populous communities, being close to the Ruhr, as well as the North Rhine-Westphalia’s capital being centrally located have greatly contributed to this decision. In addition, much more appropriate dates for the sector on 12 and 13 April were able to be scheduled. The trade halls will offer more comfort – with Hall 8b being the newest addition to be used at the Messe Düsseldorf trade hall – and in addition to this, the conference and meeting rooms are really quite impressive.
Due to the establishment of an individual event for the community IT-sector, Public IT, larger premises would be additionally needed. "By doing this, we are reacting to the changes in the community trade fair market, therefore it is quite a bout of luck with respect to the Zukunft Kommune and its parallel events that they will consider the alternating locations in the provincial capitals of Dusseldorf and Stuttgart their homes," exclaimed project manager Kremer. In particular, long travel times for representatives and trade fair visitors from the ministries and the communities in the urban centres will be avoided.
