WAIE - World AI Industry Exhibition Shenzhen

The World AI Industry Exhibition (WAIE) is an international trade fair for artificial intelligence and advanced industrial technologies. Organized annually by the Shenzhen Electronics Industries Association, the event takes place at the Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center, one of China’s leading innovation hubs. The exhibition attracts experts, companies, and industry professionals from around the world.

As a central meeting point for the AI sector, the WAIE sets benchmarks for the latest advancements in industrial intelligence, robotics, and manufacturing automation. The exhibition focuses on five key areas: industrial chips and sensors, advanced laser and optoelectronics, robotics and smart manufacturing, industrial internet and cloud technologies, as well as photovoltaics and energy storage. Exhibitors showcase cutting-edge solutions in these fields, ranging from AI-powered machinery and big data analytics to innovative lithium batteries for sustainable energy supply.

A major highlight of the WAIE is its extensive lineup of expert forums and conferences, where over 100 renowned specialists discuss emerging trends, research findings, and future strategies. Around 20 high-level panel discussions and keynote speeches provide in-depth insights into digital transformation and its impact on global supply chains. More than just a traditional exhibition, the WAIE serves as an innovation platform that fosters knowledge exchange between technology developers, investors, and policymakers.

The event attracts exhibitors from diverse industries, including automotive, aerospace, electronics manufacturing, medical technology, and renewable energy. The professional audience is equally varied: representatives from research and development, production managers, investors, and key decision-makers leverage the WAIE to explore business opportunities and establish strategic partnerships.

The choice of Shenzhen as the host city underscores the significance of the WAIE. Known as the “Silicon Valley of China,” Shenzhen is a global hub for high-tech industries and innovation. The Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center is easily accessible via public transportation and the Shenzhen Bao’an International Airport, ensuring a convenient experience for both domestic and international visitors.

The WAIE is more than just an exhibition – it is a key hub shaping the digital future of the industry.
