China Hi-Tech Fair (CHTF)

The China Hi-Tech Fair (CHTF) is an international trade fair specializing in electronics and electrical engineering. Founded in 1999, it takes place annually, usually in November, at the Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center. It is organized by the Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center Management Co., Ltd., and has become China’s largest high-tech fair and one of the most significant technology expos in the world.

In the 1980s, the Chinese government selected Shenzhen as one of the first Special Economic Zones. This was intended to stimulate economic growth and attract foreign investment. The city, then a small fishing village, rapidly transformed into a thriving metropolis.
The flexible economic policies and favorable manufacturing costs attracted numerous companies from the electronics and electrical engineering industries. Shenzhen evolved into a vital hub for the production of electronic components and devices. The city is particularly renowned for its role in the manufacturing of semiconductor components, smartphones, computers, and other electronic devices. Major technology companies, including Huawei and Tencent, have their headquarters in Shenzhen.
Furthermore, Shenzhen is a crucial nexus for innovation and research in electronics and electrical engineering. The city hosts numerous research facilities, startups, and incubators focused on developing new technologies and products.
Shenzhen’s connection to electronics and electrical engineering is further underscored by the presence of significant fairs and events such as the China Hi-Tech Fair (CHTF). These fairs provide platforms for exchanging ideas, showcasing new technologies, and promoting international business relations.
With exhibitors from over 50 countries, the CHTF forms an extensive platform for exchanging the latest technologies, concepts, and solutions from the electronics and electrical engineering sector. The fair stands out for its focus on advanced technologies and products in areas such as energy saving, environmental protection, manufacturing of high-end devices, new energies, and materials.
The China Hi-Tech Fair is not just a showcase of products but also a venue for high-level forums. These conferences enjoy an excellent reputation, not least because of the high caliber of speakers. They include experts from transnational corporations, scientific professionals, and management elites. This diversity of expertise makes the CHTF a meeting point for the exchange of ideas and innovation.
The CHTF also serves as a platform for economic exchange on an international level. It enables companies to tap into new markets, foster collaborations, and present the latest industry trends and developments.
The venue, the Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center, is a modern and multifunctional building. With its excellent infrastructure and central location in the economic metropolis of Shenzhen, it provides the ideal setting for the CHTF. The combination of advanced architecture, technological equipment, and professional management makes this center a first-class venue for international fairs and conferences.
In summary, the China Hi-Tech Fair in Shenzhen is a central meeting point for the electronics and electrical engineering industry, annually presenting the latest innovations and providing a forum for international exchange and cooperation. With its long-standing tradition, broad range of topics, and high level of participants and speakers, the CHTF is an indispensable date in the calendar of professionals and enthusiasts from around the world.
The China Hi-Tech Fair (CHTF) takes place annually, and therefore for the 22nd time previsibly in November 2024 in Shenzhen.
