    Dates: 12–16 October 2026. City: Shanghai. Venue: National Exhibition and Convention Center Shanghai (NECC). Dates are set by the organizer and can be revised, so check them against the official source before booking travel.

    Sectors: Industrial Engineering. The organizer publishes the full list of halls and the exhibitor line-up closer to the dates.

    Most stands work in Chinese and only some teams speak English. We arrange a Chinese interpreter in Shanghai: at the stands, in supplier negotiations and on factory visits.
