Inhorgenta and Fondation Haute Horlogerie (FHH) announce official partnership

After the first co-operation with the FHH at this year's Inhorgenta both institutions have decided in favour of a long-term collaboration. For the FHH, this is the first cooperation of this kind with an international watch and jewellery fair.

Inhorgenta, which will take place at Messe München from 20 to 23 February 2026, is thus strengthening its focus on the watchmaking sector and expanding its activities in Watch Hall A1. The aim is to further expand the range of international watch brands as well as new and traditional watch manufacturers.

"Together, we are shaping a future that puts craftsmanship, creativity and the cultural relevance of fine watchmaking centre stage," says Stefanie Mändlein (Exhibition Director Inhorgenta).

"The response to our collaboration in 2025 was overwhelming - and we want to take this experience to a new level in 2026."

An extended curated programme is planned in the FHH Cultural Space with exhibitions, lectures and immersive experiences - with the aim of inspiring, imparting knowledge and initiating intergenerational and interdisciplinary dialogue.

"This partnership reflects our conviction that Haute Horlogerie is a living cultural heritage that should be shared," emphasises Aurélie Streit, Vice President of FHH.

"By collaborating with Inhorgenta, we are strengthening our mission to visualise the emotional depth, artistic aspirations and contemporary relevance of haute horlogerie - and bring it to a wider, diverse audience."
