About the show
CIIF (China International Industry Fair) is one of China’s longest-running national industrial exhibitions. It has been staged in Shanghai every autumn since 1999 and has run for more than twenty editions.
The fair is built around the new industrial economy and the high end of manufacturing. It brings leading experts together and spans the entire smart and green production chain, from base materials and key components through advanced production equipment to complete solutions. Measured by floor space, exhibitor numbers, breadth of display and international reach, it ranks among China’s largest industrial exhibitions. Display, trade, awards and forums all come together in one event, under the banner the fair has long used: ‘Hannover Messe in the West, CIIF in the East’.
