International. Expectations for this year's edition of Automechanika Shanghai are naturally high, as the global automotive industry looks to China for new energy vehicle solutions and next-generation technologies.
Continuing as one of the most influential portals for information exchange, marketing, trade and education, the show will rely on Innovation4Mobility to reinforce rapidly evolving areas of the supply chain.
The year-end meeting from November 29 to December 2, 2023 expects to host 4,800 exhibitors on 280,000 square meters of the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai).
As a whole, the automotive ecosystem is undergoing a massive transformation, with the influence of sustainability and environmental protection increasing the demand for new energy vehicles and innovative mobility solutions alike.
With this, the international automotive community is expressing great interest in knowing more about China's advances, especially as the country is a forerunner in one of the most complex shifts towards electrification, digitalization and connectivity.
