With the help of empirical surveys on event-related expenditure by exhibitors and visitors to selected Munich trade fairs and congresses, total expenditure and, by extension, the purchasing power, employment and tax effects were calculated for an average trade fair and event year for Munich, the Free State of Bavaria and the Federal Republic of Germany. The results show that exhibitors at and visitors to trade fairs and events related to the Münich trade fair generate yearly national turnover of over 2.6 billion euros.
