Mechanical Engineering & Automation with State Secretary Tobias Gotthardt

02.03.2026

From October 6 to 10, 2026, State Secretary Tobias Gotthardt will once again lead a delegation trip to Turkey - an important market for Bavarian export companies, especially in the mechanical engineering and automation sectors. Participating companies benefit from political support, valuable contacts with local business and politics and numerous networking opportunities.

Together with the Bavarian State Ministry of Economic Affairs, Regional Development and Energy, Bayern International is organizing a politically accompanied delegation trip to Turkey under the leadership of State Secretary Tobias Gotthardt.

Turkey is considered a dynamic industrial location with a strongly export-oriented mechanical engineering and automation sector, in which German suppliers are traditionally important partners. For small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in particular, this opens up promising sales and cooperation opportunities - for example for component suppliers, automation technology providers or companies from the drive technology and mechatronics sectors.

The trip will include industry contacts, company visits, political discussions and networking formats. Participation offers Bavarian companies the opportunity to deepen market insights, establish new business relationships and find out about specific project and export opportunities in the Turkish market.
