Is this trade fair worth visiting?
✓ Yes
Yes, especially if you source Construction & Materials, 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 Construction & Materials, Electronics & Appliances, you already have verified suppliers and only need repeat orders, or the potential volume does not justify the trip.
Tips for visitors
Although it shares dates and venue with GILE, it is not a duplicate: GEBT focuses on building technology and automation. Define protocols, interoperability, cybersecurity, API, support and certification before approving systems.

Getting around
Guangzhou's metro is extensive and goes straight to the Pazhou fair venue (Line 8, Pazhou station). Taxis are cheap but few drivers speak English: use DiDi with the address in Chinese.
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.
