Chongqing (INP): The Smart China Expo 2021 (SCE 2021) will be held at Chongqing International Expo Center from August 23 to 25 this year. The theme of “Smart Technology: Empowering Economy, Enriching Life” will also continue, according to a press conference held by the Information Office of Chongqing Municipal People’s Government Sunday.

Online and offline integration

In order to effectively manage and control the COVID-19 pandemic, offline exhibitions are open to specially invited audiences only. The rest of the audience is encouraged to log on to the official website of the Smart China Expo to view the exhibition online.

Exhibitors from 31 countries and regions

At present, 133 important guests, including heads of relevant international organizations, global industry leaders, world-renowned science award-winning scientists, and internationally renowned scholars, have been invited to confirm their online or offline participation.
