SilkWay Industrial Expo Astana

The SilkWay Industrial Expo is an international trade fair with a clear focus on fostering industrial cooperation between Kazakhstan and China. It is held annually at the modern IEC EXPO International Exhibition Center in Astana, Kazakhstan’s rapidly growing capital. The event is organized by Iteca Almaty, one of Central Asia’s leading exhibition companies, known for its extensive experience, professional execution, and international outreach.

More than just a showcase for the latest technologies, the Expo serves as a strategic platform for innovation, investment, and economic collaboration. It brings together companies, professionals, and decision-makers from the sectors of mining, construction, infrastructure, and industrial technologies to present innovations, establish business relationships, and initiate cross-border projects. The focus lies on building sustainable industrial value chains and promoting knowledge exchange between two major economic regions.

A defining feature of the SilkWay Industrial Expo is its targeted focus on the region’s key industries. In the construction sector, exhibitors present modern building materials, façade and window technologies, water supply solutions, heating and ventilation systems, and surface materials. The mining sector covers the full value chain – from exploration and mineral processing to metallurgy, safety solutions, and consulting services for the mining and smelting industries. In infrastructure and mechanical engineering, the Expo sets new standards with a wide range of offerings including road construction equipment, tunneling technologies, lifting and transport systems, spare parts, leasing models, and state-of-the-art machinery for raw material extraction.

The trade fair not only addresses a highly relevant economic agenda, but also highlights Kazakhstan’s role as a central hub of the modern Silk Road. The name “SilkWay Industrial Expo” symbolically reflects this bridge between East and West, between industry and technology, tradition and the future.

Exhibitors represent a broad range of industries, including mechanical and plant engineering, geotechnics, environmental technology, materials management, as well as the construction and mining sectors. The visitors – primarily industry professionals such as construction firms, engineers, developers, municipal representatives, and investors – attend the Expo to establish new business contacts, explore the latest technologies, and identify emerging market opportunities.

A special highlight of the event is its diverse supporting program, which includes expert forums and B2B meetings. In doing so, the SilkWay Industrial Expo not only enhances visibility for participating companies, but also actively contributes to the region’s technological advancement.

The venue – the IEC EXPO International Exhibition Center – is conveniently located in Astana, just minutes from the city center, with excellent connections to public transportation and the international airport. Its modern infrastructure, spacious exhibition areas, and professional services ensure a pleasant and efficient trade fair experience for both exhibitors and visitors.
