Deutsche Messe, the organizer behind the computer expo CeBIT, has made the decision to no longer host CeBIT Hannover next year.
This means that IT trade show CeBIT's 33 year run has come to an end. According to a Deutsche Messe press release some parts of CeBIT will be integrated into Hannover Messe trade show and others organized by the same group.
The reason given for the cancellation of once thriving trade show was simply lack of attendance and space bookings.
For over thirty years CeBIT has been the home of computer and information technology innovation. The final CeBIT, for now at least, was in held June, 2018.
