didacta asia Bangkok

didacta asia is Southeast Asia’s leading education trade fair and the Asian counterpart of the renowned European didacta. It serves as an international forum for didactic innovation and showcases the full spectrum of modern education and training. Held annually at the state-of-the-art Bangkok International Trade & Exhibition Center (BITEC), the event connects the dynamic education landscape of Asia with the latest innovations from global education providers. Organized by Koelnmesse GmbH – one of Europe’s most experienced trade fair organizers – didacta asia benefits from a wealth of international expertise, specifically tailored for the Asian market.

The event positions itself as a specialized platform for decision-makers in education, policy, and business. Its focus lies on forward-looking topics such as early childhood education, school education, vocational training, and digital learning. At the core are digital technologies like artificial intelligence, robotics, virtual and augmented reality, and integrated learning platforms, all presented and discussed in practical, application-oriented settings.

Rather than simply offering products, didacta asia provides tangible solutions for learning-enhancing environments – from smart classroom concepts and educational software to school furnishings, learning materials, and instructional media. Exhibits include AI-powered learning platforms, interactive displays, mobile learning apps, digital teaching tools, 3D printing and prototyping equipment, CAD training solutions, DIY robotics kits, and STEM-focused educational resources.

Exhibitors comprise companies, publishers, and institutions from the EdTech sector, as well as suppliers of educational toys, STEM initiatives, school equipment, and vocational training systems. Visitors include representatives from ministries, schools, universities, education centers, non-profit organizations, and industry – with a strong presence of key decision-makers, education planners, school authorities, educators, and trainers.

As part of the global didacta trade fair network, didacta asia is more than just a regional offshoot. It reflects the educational needs and innovation potential of the entire ASEAN region, serving as a bridge between international best practices and local requirements.

With program highlights such as the didacta asia Congress, the Future Skills Forum, hands-on vocational skills competitions, and the interactive Digital Learning Ecosystem, the event creates an immersive experience for next-generation learning.

Bangkok, as a vibrant economic and cultural hub of Southeast Asia, offers ideal conditions for hosting the fair. BITEC is a modern, well-connected venue, perfectly suited to showcase innovation and facilitate connections among international education professionals.

The didacta asia will take place on 3 days from Wednesday, 15. October to Friday, 17. October 2025 in Bangkok.
