Movecat from Nufringen near Stuttgart, one of the world’s leading developers and manufacturers in the field of stage kinetics, has cancelled its participation in this year’s Prolight + Sound in response to the significantly worsened situation regarding the spread of the Covid-19 virus. „We cannot and will not expose our employees or trade fair visitors to unnecessary risks of contracting this infectious disease“, says Movecat Managing Director Oliver Nachbauer. „The decision was very difficult for us because we have been meeting our customers at Prolight + Sound for many years and were able to show them the latest equipment“.
However, Movecat wants to present its new products at an in-house exhibition on May 7, 2020. A professional programme with additional activities are planned on the company’s own premises in Nufringen, providing the opportunity to get to know all the new equipment in detail and to exchange ideas with the developers. The schedule for the Movecat Open House will be announced soon.
