Hongqiao Tech Week will be held at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) from November 20 to 22, 2026.
Centered on the core vision of “Global Tech Vision, Empowered by China’s Momentum”, the event strives to shape the technological landscape of the next decade together with global innovation pioneers, leveraging China’s vast technology market.
Booth and sponsorship bookings are now fully open, with early bird discounts concluding on August 12. Secure premium booths and key resources to get a head start in domestic market development, expand international partnerships and elevate your brand influence.
When global buyers and investors sit down at the same table,
many enterprises focus on one core question: will this unlock new market opportunities.
Hongqiao Tech Week shares global overseas enterprise databases, international tech speakers, innovation decision-makers and investment institution resources with London Tech Week. Both events will jointly source and invite over 2,000 targeted buyers for business matchmaking. Centered on procurement demands, channel cooperation, industrial docking, investment and financing, and international expansion, tailored one-on-one high-quality business meetings will be arranged for exhibitors.
This is not merely an exhibition, but a rare chance to truly sit at the same table with global buyers, investors and industrial partners.
Six Themed Forums
Connecting Global Trends with Business Opportunities
Running concurrently with the exhibition are six themed tracks comprising over 200 conferences and specialized forums. Discussions will focus on six cutting-edge sectors: AI, Future Mobility & Energy, Digital Infrastructure, industry 5.0, Life Sciences & Health, and Startup . The forum zones serve not only as platforms for trend sharing, but also as high-value traffic hubs throughout the three-day event.
Mr. Mantas Mazeikis, CISO of HELM AG, a century-old German multinational industrial group; Ms. Despina Panayiotou Theodosiou, CEO of Tototheo Global, a leading enterprise in international maritime digital technology; Mr. Chenyi Ang, Chairman of CSDA, the Global Sustainable Digital Assets Institution; and Mr. Rocky Scopelliti, best-selling author, futurist and Adjunct Professor at the University of Technology Sydney, have confirmed their participation in the special forums of Hongqiao Tech Week. More global corporate executives, investors, technology leaders and industry decision-makers will continue to join the event.
With forums, exhibition areas and business engagements co-located on-site, your booth is far more than a space for product display. It serves as a prime venue for face-to-face interactions with global speakers, buyers and partners. Attendees, speakers and industry decision-makers can visit your booth during forum breaks, business matchmaking sessions and on-site networking activities. They will gain first-hand insight into your technologies, products and solutions, creating direct opportunities for partnership discussions, channel expansion, investment dialogue and the implementation of international projects.
Beyond the Exhibition
The City Becomes Your Stage
As a comprehensive tech festival geared toward industrial-wide implementation, Hongqiao Tech Week extends far beyond the exhibition halls.
Under the guidance of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, the Administrative Committee of Hongqiao International Central Business District, the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Commerce and the Shanghai Science and Technology Commission, a series of city exploration programmes will be launched alongside the exhibition. Attendees can participate in diverse peripheral activities to gain in-depth access to the industrial ecosystem of Shanghai and the Yangtze River Delta.
The Shanghai Tech Tour will organise overseas buyers, investors, industry decision-makers and professional visitors to visit key industrial parks, innovation platforms and leading tech enterprises in the region. Participants will gain on-site insights into cutting-edge industrial layouts, technology application scenarios and regional innovation capabilities. As an exhibitor or sponsor, your company may be featured on the tour itinerary. This enables target clients, partners and investors to visit your premises and experience your technological strengths and commercial value amid authentic R&D, production and application environments.
An invitation-only private dinner will be hosted at Shanghai Panlong Tiandi on the first evening of the exhibition. Attendance is restricted to VIPs, founders, investors, distinguished guests and representatives of invited companies. This high-calibre gathering centres on cooperation, investment and future projects, creating opportunities for enterprises to build direct, in-depth networks and business connections.
