About this fair
One of China’s oldest and most influential electronics fairs, connecting established industry leaders, startups and international professionals. Its profile is more component- and industrial-B2B-oriented than consumer-product focused, making it useful for buyers and engineers who need to compare electronic parts, test and measurement equipment, IT hardware and selected small appliances.
Most in-demand products
Electronic components, test and measurement equipment, IT hardware and small appliances.
Sources and verification
Is this trade fair worth visiting?
✓ Yes
Yes, especially if you source Electronics & Appliances, want to compare samples in person or negotiate with several manufacturers in a few days.
— Not necessarily
Probably not if your product belongs to a different sector than Electronics & Appliances, you already have verified suppliers and only need repeat orders, or the potential volume does not justify the trip.
Tips for visitors
The profile is more focused on components and industrial B2B than finished consumer products. Bring technical specifications and target volumes so supplier conversations can move quickly from catalogue products to real sourcing requirements.

Getting around
Shenzhen's metro is modern and covers the whole city, including the border area with Hong Kong (Luohu/Futian station). Crossing into Hong Kong by metro plus border control takes about 45-60 minutes.
On local networks in mainland China, some international services may be restricted or unavailable. If you rely on them for work, prepare a connectivity solution that complies with current rules before travelling and do not depend on a single app. Hong Kong operates under a different internet regime.
