INTERMODELLBAU 2026 as a talent factory for the UxS industry


INTERMODELLBAU 2026 at the Westfalenhallen in Dortmund is considered Europe’s most important platform for functional model making. But there is much more to the remote-controlled exhibits than just leisure fun. From 16 to 19 April, the trade fair will serve as a talent factory for the drone economy. It lays the foundation for technical interest among young people who may one day become valuable specialists for the UxS industry.
Many professions within the UxS industry have their origins in model making. And that is precisely why INTERMODELLBAU, which primarily appeals to families and young visitors, is a breeding ground for the drone economy. Anyone who can fly a model aeroplane is predestined to be a drone pilot. Anyone who has mastered electronics, sensor technology and batteries in model making will also quickly come to terms with the complex technology of an unmanned system. And anyone who has learned how to work with, glue and paint different materials through model making will find the construction and maintenance of prototypes and one-off pieces a welcome change.
With its extensive programme, INTERMODELLBAU creates the basis for precisely the kind of young talent that the UxS industry is desperately seeking.
Spectacular action shows, exciting specialist lectures and impressive live demonstrations are on offer in Dortmund. Tens of thousands of detailed models from all areas of model making provide amazement, inspiration and plenty of topics for conversation. International exhibitors, experienced professionals and creative newcomers make the trade fair a lively platform for exchange, trends and innovations. INTERMODELLBAU 2026 promises unforgettable impressions and plenty of excitement.
