At the General Assembly of the Eurasian Lift Association (ELA), a decision was made to launch preparations for the second international exhibition “Lift Expo. Moscow,” which will take place from November 10 to 12, 2026, at the Crocus Expo International Exhibition Center.

From its very first edition, “Lift Expo. Moscow” has established itself as a unique platform bringing together business, government, the professional community, and the media. Participation in the exhibition is not only about promoting the products of exhibiting companies, but also about contributing to the development of the industry as a whole. The project enables the creation of a relevant agenda, the proposal of systemic solutions, and a constructive dialogue with government authorities, while attracting the attention of a wide target audience.

Thanks to the opportunity to showcase fully operational lift equipment and a broad range of exhibits, the project remains the only industry platform in Russia capable of supporting sustainable growth and upscaling. This is evidenced by strong visitor numbers and keen interest from business partners and media.

“Lift Expo. Moscow 2026” will be developed in close collaboration with the professional community. A dedicated exhibition council will be formed, bringing together representatives of key companies and organizations in the industry.

Work will begin on the business program, with a special focus on new formats, pressing topics, practical case studies, and the involvement of leading experts. Close cooperation with major industry online platforms and national media outlets is also planned. Once again, in-house media studios will operate on-site to provide real-time coverage and keep attention on the industry throughout the year.

International cooperation will continue: negotiations are currently underway to organize national pavilions for Turkey, China, and India. The exhibition’s international recognition is further confirmed by the strong engagement of the global industry community.

All organizational matters — from logistics to digital tools — will be handled with the experience of the first event in mind. New electronic services will be introduced to facilitate direct connections between suppliers and customers, and an additional setup day (included in the participation fee) will help exhibitors better prepare their stands and reduce costs.

ELA members expressed strong support for the upcoming exhibition and have already contributed valuable suggestions regarding the development of the project, specifics of the exposition, and the approach to the business program.
