Is this trade fair worth visiting?
✓ Yes
Yes, especially if you source Aerospace & Defense, Electronics & Appliances, Industrial Machinery, 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 Aerospace & Defense, Electronics & Appliances, Industrial Machinery, you already have verified suppliers and only need repeat orders, or the potential volume does not justify the trip.
Tips for visitors
Use it primarily for technology scouting and higher-complexity suppliers. For new solutions, validate intellectual property, manufacturer stability, certifications, product roadmap and actual support capability before building an import project around a demonstration.

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.
