Education and career guidance resources converge for three days in Graz. SBim 2026 runs from 26 to 28 November 2026 in Hall A of Messe Graz, with free admission and hours from 9 to 17.
Dates and venue for SBim 2026
SBim 2026 will be held from 26 to 28 November 2026 in Hall A at Messe Graz. Opening hours are 9:00 to 17:00 and entry is free. The event features a dedicated area called Schulstadt Graz which operates only on Friday 27 and Saturday 28 under the original title “Wohin nach der Volksschule?”.
Travel arrangements by train are supported via an ÖBB Kongresskonto. The organizers provide a TAN code MTW6QW for registration to that account.
Audience and exhibitor profile
The fair positions itself as the largest educational information fair in Styria, targeting students finishing compulsory schooling, job seekers and families. The event also expands offerings for adult education, so expect institutions covering apprenticeships, vocational training and lifelong learning providers.
One highlighted resource is the AMS Berufskompass, a tool that analyzes interests and suggests suitable careers in an online and PDF format. That emphasis indicates a visitor profile focused on decision-oriented information and comparative tools.
Program elements and visitor services
The official information lists a lecture program, hall plan, exhibitor directory and orientation aids such as interest tests. These components suggest a mix of information stands, short presentations and zones for quick guidance.
Practical services include a general information area where basic questions about school and career pathways are addressed, plus specific guidance material for different age groups.
Tactical advice for B2B outreach at SBim 2026
If your goal is to generate institutional leads or recruit learners, tailor your approach to two core audiences: young people and their guardians. Actionable steps:
- Prepare two sets of materials. One for students focusing on entry routes and outcomes, another for parents emphasizing career prospects and support options.
- Schedule short demos or micro-presentations during peak visiting hours. Attendees often arrive with specific questions and value concise answers.
- Prioritize digital assets and quick capture methods. QR-linked forms outperform lengthy paper forms for lead capture.
- Coordinate with public services and tools like AMS Berufskompass to create referral pathways; such links increase credibility for families comparing options.
Also plan staff rotations to handle school groups efficiently since the event includes days aimed at class visits.
Practical note for institutional visitors
Define target segments and the offerings you will present before arrival. Consult the exhibitor list and the Hall A layout to plan walk routes and meetings. If traveling by rail, register for an ÖBB Kongresskonto and use the TAN MTW6QW shared by the organizers.
