What was said about Building Fair Brno, DSB 
and MOBITEX

„Thank you to all exhibitors and fans of the Construction Fair for coming and your support. Construction is a very important field, which fights the lack of work force. I was missing a robotic bricklayer at the Fair.“
Jiří Kuliš, CEO of Brno Exhibition Center

„Our seminar on electronic evidence of sales is part of the campaign, which we run for the first time here in Brno (anddefinitely not the last time), because with the 3rd wave of EES we expect rise in interest for information and in particular devices and applications. That’s why companies offering EES administration solutions can be seen here in the adjacent spaces.“
Alena Schillerová, the Minister of Finance at MF Czech Republic

„I could say our company is a leader of annual Construction Fair. This year we even had to reinforce our staff at the Fair, because we have estimated, that lots of people will stop by our stand – end customers, professionals, schoolexcursions, Brno citizens and journalists. We have joined our powers with several projects presented here as well.We cooperated on accompanying program of the Architectural Fair, where we delivered a model of green roof.“
Kateřina Kořenková, Marketing specialist at Xella CZ, s.r.o. Company

„Highway engineering and building construction have positive numbers. We are building in the Czech Republic, and basically 50% of these investments are public. The Government has promised to enlarge the resources in the Fond for Highway engineering during the next year,respectively this year. I wish the fair well and I wish to exhibitors to be successful and to bring new customers from this event."
Eduard Muřický, Deputy Minister at the Ministry of Industry and Trade

„Construction Fair always attracts an interesting palette of professionals, and we are truly pleased by their interest andeffort to cooperate with us on common subjects. Big advantage of the fair is, that we can all meet at one place without having other responsibilities distracting us, so we have the space for mutual discussion."
Walter Sodomka, the Director of Chimney Association - APOKS

„I praise Brno; today I had the time to see the city and kudos for what you have accomplished. Naturally I have been praising the whole Brno Exhibition Center area for a long time, it was a very good move that urbanists in the 20's have made. I am also glad for the cooperation with Brno Exhibiton Center and for our stand, where is high frequence of advice.“
Pavel Křeček, Chairman of the Czech Chamber of Authorized Engineers and Technicians in Construction

„We are exhibiting for the first time here in Brno and we are pleasantly surprised. We address mainly architects, designers and building companies here, and we have agreed on some interesting things. Also the Architecture Fair has brought some new partners, we talked to people who work on bigger deals and we agreed on cooperation. Our main goal is to expand to Moravia, where we look for partners and I think we have succeeded in this area.“
Josef Bolina, business manager, Design for All

„Attendance at this year's fair was good. On Saturday, the capacity of our sales representatives was not even enough for us. We underestimated it. We definitely need to strengthen our team next year.“
Jaroslav Petřík, sales representative of SOKOL - WINDOWS - DOORS - DOORS s.r.o.

Petr Opavský, project manager in Dobre Podlahy (Good Floors)

„I had the opportunity to walk through the entire fairgrounds and look at it from the juror point of view. I have to say, it turned out very well, including the student section. We also know the winners of the apprenticeship championships, from which some had flattering foreign overlap, for example in joiners field, there were representatives of the whole V4 (Visegrád Group).“
Lucie Haraslínová, Chairwoman of Cluster of Czech Furniture Manufacturers

Mainly in the course of past ten years we could witness production robotization and I dare to say that hundreds of robots already work in Czech furniture manufacturing industry.“
Tomáš Lukeš, Secretary of Czech Furniture Manufacturers Association

„Participation on the MOBITEX Fair was very important to us for so many reasons. Mainly we have introduced our bed Sonnenberg Concept One – for this event we have carried out a press conference, and entered the Czech market with brands Grand and Sonnenberg. We are glad we could do this here in Brno, build a beautiful stand on these beautiful fairgrounds. For us it is important, that visitors can try our beds with no worries, which will tell them more than an hour-long lecture.“
Bedřich Skalický, business and marketing director, Grand Beds Czech Republic

„Our company likes to participate at MOBITEX fair, because we can introduce our complete range of products, including the new products – which were sofas Levi and Lia for this year – to visitors from all around the Czech Republic. Meeting our customers in person always gives us the opportunity to see what they are interested in. This year it was mostly call for smaller sofas, which look great and are practical, can unfold or have storage space included. The fair is one of the ways how customers can try our products and compare them to our competitors. The possibility to compare more manufacturers under one roof is a benefit and also our wish for the future – the more companies will present their products, the more interesting will the fair be.“
Lenka Kolářová, business department, JECH

„I like MOBITEX 2020 Fair very much, which is why I say, it’s waved its wings like a butterfly and flies up again. Now it is important that the cold wind does not blow next year to beat this butterfly down. I’m very happy that there are lots of new exhibitors this year, and lots of interesting and welldesigned models of furniture. I think that new designs and new ways of processing are good to go. Also professional lectures are well organized, people can come here for knowledge and to study, which helps them to better understand presented exhibits.“
Helena Prokopová, Guildmaster, Guild of Upholsterers, Designers and Joiners

„I have decided to brake clichés and create a solitaire piece, which will be dominant of a bedroom - it will stand freelyand serve one purpose only: quality sleeping. I am very satisfied with the result and the product quality of the yearlong work on this product, on which upholsterers did a terrific and highly professional work.“
Petr Novague, designer at Sonnenberg Concept One and bearer of prestigious awards Red Dot Awards

„The fair is an opportunity for us to present our new products to the professionals and public as well. This yearwe presented wardrobe and table sets ALOOK, lightweight in design, which was created in cooperation with Brno Studio SENAA Architects. We are happy that people like our new design, we have first positive reactions and we value the award from GRAND PRIX MOBITEX competition, which we got for the set.“
Josef Hanzl, company Sales Representative, OFFICE PRO SERVICES s.r.o.

„We have been participating at the Brno Fair for eleven years now, and we are always looking forward to it. This year we have introduced our new product – mattress Maestro, which was awarded the GRAND PRIX award for one of the best products in the field. We have also a unique adjustable grate exhibited here, which can bear up to 600 kg. The turnout was a bit influenced by the COVID-19 threat, we all felt it and each exhibitor talks about it here. But the customers who come here are creditworthy and we were happy to be with you here again.“
František Hlaváč, CEO at Magniflex
