This is Deutsche Messe AG’s fourth straight year at the CIIE, where it is showcasing more than 50 specialist exhibitions from countries such as China, Germany, Italy, Brazil, and Turkey. The shows cover more than 20 industries, ranging from manufacturing and electronics to fashion, culinary, and beyond, and feature advancements in a variety of fields.
Köckler stressed that the CIIE goes beyond global trade. “It’s a vital platform for companies to introduce their innovations and expand into new markets,” he said. “We aim to leverage the global reach of the CIIE to bring high-quality international exhibitions to China, while also working with our Chinese partners to explore new opportunities in overseas markets and showcasing Chinese innovation to the world.”

Köckler sees TIFN as “the forefront of innovative technology and smart manufacturing,” establishing the event as a critical platform for determining the future of global industry.
According to Köckler, China is investing extensively in future technologies to promote sustainable development, making it competitive in the global business scene, such as electric cars.
“Over the last few years, China has consolidated its domestic success by meeting local demand with increasingly high quality and cost-effective products,” he said. “Now it appears that it seeks to extend that success globally with an exceptional price-to-quality ratio and steadily improving product standards.”
