2025 South China International Industry Fair in Shenzhen - South China Industry Fair SCIIF

The Shenzhen South China International Industry Fair (SCIIF) - South China Industry Fair is one of the series of events co-created by the Hannover Messe and the China Industrial Expo. In 2020, the organizer of the fair, Hannover Messe GmbH, reached a close strategic partnership to jointly explore the South China market, complementing each other's strengths and combining forces to build a comprehensive industrial trade exchange and cooperation platform covering the entire industry chain. Since its inception in 1999, it has become the most influential and authoritative international industrial expo in the Asia-Pacific region.
The new round of industrial revolution is in the ascendant, and the global industrial digital transformation is advancing in depth. At the Hannover Messe, known as the "barometer of world industrial development," the concepts and visions of the digital industry and smart manufacturing are increasingly being turned into practical applications. The applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Fifth-Generation Mobile Communication Technology (5G) were the focus of attention in 2019. Founded in 1947, the Hannover Messe is the world's largest industrial exhibition and the birthplace of Germany's "Industry 4.0." In 2011, Germany first publicly introduced this concept at the Hannover Messe, with its core being the integration of different technologies and elements to digitize and intelligentize the industry, giving birth to an intelligent value chain covering the entire product lifecycle, making flexible and personalized production the new standard, reducing resource consumption, and significantly promoting economic benefits.
The Hannover Messe has always been focused on "integrating industries," and "integration" is a core characteristic of the new round of industrial revolution. The flexible arrangement and combination of industrial design, planning, production, logistics, services, and information and communication technology have given rise to various applications, with companies worldwide attempting to innovate through these arrangements and combinations.
Since its establishment in 1999, the China International Industry Fair has become the most influential and authoritative international industrial expo in the Asia-Pacific region. It has built an important platform for Chinese and global industrial enterprises to display, exchange, and trade industrial technologies; it has provided strong support for China's industrial development, especially the industrial development of Shanghai. In 2015, the "Made in China 2025" plan was launched, determining the path of digitalization, networking, and intelligentization for Chinese manufacturing.
This year's fair, with the theme of "Intelligence, Interconnection, Empowering New Developments in Industry," deeply integrates high-end intelligent equipment, automation and robotics, industrial internet, artificial intelligence, digital factory technologies, and solutions, perfectly showcasing the manufacturing industry. Thanks to the practical application of cutting-edge technologies such as AI, 5G, and edge computing, the future industry is steadily moving towards scalable flexible production, full-process transparent production, distributed production, and intelligent automated production. From product design and manufacturing to transportation and services, the global industrial chain will be reshaped.
Against the backdrop of the broad development prospects of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the South China International Industry Fair has emerged. As one of the two largest and most influential series of industrial events globally, the South China International Industry Fair is positioned at a high level for the future of industry and precisely focuses on China's smart manufacturing. By showcasing the latest technologies and solutions in the entire industry, including automation, machine vision and industrial robotics, next-generation information technology and digital factory solutions, metal processing and laser manufacturing technology, energy conservation and industrial support, and new materials, it perfectly presents the effective integration of innovative technologies and products in the smart industrial chain.
