Is there an exhibitor list for MACH?
Yes. The organizer publishes the exhibitor list on floorplan.live. More than 500 exhibitors at MACH 2026 across five halls (organizer news, 28 July 2026). Over 13,000 m2 of 2028 stand space was already sold by July 2026.
Can I get the attendee list for MACH?
Organizers rarely publish one. EarlyHall builds it from public sources: exhibitor and speaker pages and social posts, plus the event app when you give us access. Each person is tagged with their role at the event and the source we found them in, and a listing is never presented as confirmed attendance. Lists start at $349 per event.
