China International Industry Fair

CIIF (China International Industry Fair), held annually in Shanghai since 1999, showcases the entire industrial supply chain. Integrating the functions of exhibitions, trade, awards, and forums, CIIF drives global innovation and collaboration in smart and sustainable manufacturing.

MWCS covers three major thematic sections: Laser Processing & Sheet Metal Stamping Technology, Metal Cutting & Additive Manufacturing Technology, and Machine Tool Accessories and Peripheral Products. It focuses on metal-cutting, sheet metal working, metal forming & fabricating, inspecting & measuring, metal 3D printing, advanced functional parts, metallic material, etc. 

IAS is dedicated to creating seven special exhibition areas to provide a platform for global manufacturing enterprises to showcase new products, new technologies and new solutions. Here, you can see the change of automation technology, feel the cutting-edge technology, and grasp the stage of technology and innovation.

RS stands as the industrial robotics platform with the highest number of participating enterprises across the entire global industry chain, and is hailed by the sector as a bellwether for China’s robotics industry development. In 2026, RS will further expand the Humanoid Robotics Zone and the Intelligent Elderly Care Service Robotics Zone. 

In 2026, ES will focus on three major sections: Clean Energy (nuclear utilization, advanced reactors, safe nuclear chain), New Energy (wind, solar, hydrogen storage, smart grids, flexible transmission), Green Intelligent Solutions (AI, virtual power plants, integrated energy). Side events include summits, forums, seminars, and matchmaking meetings.

ICTS focuses on empowering manufacturing with key technologies: industrial internet, industrial AI, cloud/big data, software/OS, algorithm/computing power, security, wireless communication, and supply chain. High-level forums on Industrial Internet, Supply Chain, and Software will be held to unite government, academia, and users to stimulate breakthrough thinking for new applications.

FTIS focuses on five major fields including intelligent connected vehicles, low-altitude economy, new energy, core components and future ecosystems. During the show, industry summits and business matchmaking meetings will be held to foster business cooperation, while the iBlue Sky Car Festival will feature full-range vehicle models.

GLCS focuses intensely on the management, operation, maintenance, renovation, and upgrading of equipment. It aims to build an integrated platform for technology, products, services, and finance, providing parks and high-energy-consuming enterprises with actionable and measurable solutions for industrial net-zero transition.

NMIS focuses on application scenarios of new energy materials, low-altitude economic and commercial aerospace materials, automobile rail transit and marine engineering materials, artificial intelligence and humanoid robot materials, future materials and process equipment, bio-manufacturing and life and health, etc. As a platform for display and negotiation, it serves the R&D, application, and promotion of the industry, aiming to promote its higher quality development.

STIS encourages domestic and foreign institutions to present unique core technologies with independent intellectual property rights. It consists of five sections: the Innovation Science and Technology Exhibition Hall Section, the University Section, the CIIF Tech, the High-tech Achievement Section, and the Overseas Institution Exhibition Group Section.

NICE focuses on the closed-loop implementation from chips to application scenarios and realizes the full-chain deployment covering IC design, specialized manufacturing processes, packaging and integration, and solution provision. Concurrently, it hosts the China IC Ecology Summit Forum, industry annual conference, professional forums, one-on-one matching, cross-border negotiations, and IC Awards.

CIIF Forums will emphasize high-end development with digital empowerment, intelligent development with energy conservation and emission reduction, green development with high - end leadership, and branded and regional collaborative development with international vision. 

CIIF Awards are an essential function of CIIF, identifying and honoring innovative technologies and products in industry through authoritative professional evaluations. Focusing on industrial sub-sectors and cutting-edge technological directions, The CIIF Professional Awards recognize high professional capabilities, innovation strength, and growth potential, encouraging enterprise development and contributing to global technological progress and industrial civilization.

On top of this, the CIIF Awards are the highest award within the CIIF award system, which is China's top industrial award, granted to outstanding achievements representing the forefront of global industrial and information integration. Stringent criteria require winners to achieve major breakthroughs in innovation, have demonstration applications or commercialization, and exert a leading impact on industries and regions.
