At the end of the Jubilee Year 2011 (50th anniversary of the Siegerlandhalle) the Siegerlandhalle can not only look back on five successful decades, but also ahead: The Hall Management has developed a 42-page “future strategy”, which will be presented to municipal bodies for consultation and decision from 1st December. It identifies and illustrates the
Opportunities and possibilities of the largest convention centre in South Westphalia, in particular in terms of the conference and trade show market, and highlights which measures and general conditions are necessary for the short, medium and long term. The main recommendations of the “future strategy” refer to the building, the operational business, on aspects of sustainability and various location factors. In light of the strained municipal budgets the concept also serves as the basis for the medium-term financial planning of the city of Siegen and therefore considers appropriate requirements in due time. Initial minor financial implications are already incorporated in the draft budget of the city of Siegen for 2012. Finally, it should be noted that the “future strategy” was subject to a plausibility check by an external consulting firm.
