Qatar Smart Manufacturing Doha

Qatar Smart Manufacturing is Qatar’s first trade fair dedicated entirely to smart manufacturing and Industry 4.0 technologies. Since its inception in 2024, it has been held annually in May at the prestigious Doha Exhibition & Convention Center (DECC). Organized by IFP Qatar, a seasoned trade fair organizer with a strong focus on economic transformation in the Gulf region, Qatar Smart Manufacturing offers a specialized platform that brings together manufacturers, technology providers, and innovators from around the world.

The name of the trade fair reflects its claim: state-of-the-art manufacturing technologies, innovative solutions and strategic exchange in the heart of the Middle East. Core topics include automation, digitalization, additive manufacturing, and sustainable production methods. The exhibition is aligned with the goals of the Qatar National Manufacturing Strategy 2024–2030, which aims to build a resilient, diversified, and technologically advanced industrial sector with robust private sector participation.

Industry conferences, live demonstrations, and hands-on workshops deepen the discussion on key themes such as digital transformation, the use of 3D printing technologies, and environmentally friendly production solutions. The exhibition not only highlights technological advancements but also presents real-world applications, new business models, and future-ready manufacturing strategies. Exhibitors showcase solutions that integrate smart robotics, connected production systems, and energy-efficient concepts.

Qatar Smart Manufacturing serves as a stage not only for international market leaders and local technology pioneers but also for startups, research institutions, and specialized service providers. The professional audience spans a wide range of industries—including mechanical engineering, automotive, aerospace, electronics, energy, construction, and healthcare—and leverages the exhibition to build partnerships, share knowledge, and engage in dialogue on the latest developments.

Moreover, Qatar Smart Manufacturing acts as a strategic gateway for international companies seeking to expand into the dynamically growing markets of the Gulf region.

With its modern facilities and central location in Doha’s business district, the Doha Exhibition & Convention Center provides ideal conditions both in terms of content and infrastructure. Its direct airport access, proximity to high-quality hotels, and excellent transportation links make Qatar Smart Manufacturing a key meeting point for decision-makers and thought leaders in the manufacturing industry.

The Qatar Smart Manufacturing will take place on 3 days from Monday, 18. May to Wednesday, 20. May 2026 in Doha.
