The entire Rochexpo team, its partners and exhibitors are working hard to make this biennial event a real success. In a month's time, the exhibition will be set up and everyone will be ready to welcome you to the Roche sur Foron site.

This week, together with the administrators of the SIMODEC commission, we brought together the Exhibitors' Club. Everyone shares the desire to see you again and to share these moments of professional exchange, which are always of rare intensity.

The nineteen candidates for the SIMODEC 2026 Innovation Awards are honing their arguments to convince the judges of the relevance of their applications. The judges, all professionals in the sector, are reviewing the applications submitted on 12 January. They will meet with the candidates next week.

Together with our partners, our team is preparing the events that will mark this exhibition. In this fast-moving world, professionals in the field of bar turning and precision machining will be able to take the time, from 2 to 6 March in La Roche sur Foron, to meet their suppliers and those who are not yet suppliers, to exchange ideas with them, and to appreciate together the methods and means that each has to offer.

Together with all of you, exhibitors and visitors alike, we look forward to participating fully in this event. We have prepared it for you.

Philippe Vachoux, President of Rochexpo
