The third China International Supply Chain Expo (CISCE), opening July 16-20 in Beijing, will showcase breakthroughs in robotics, AI, and smart automation as part of its mission to reshape global trade networks. As the world’s first supply chain-focused exhibition, the event aims to bridge technological advancements with practical industrial applications.
Why It Matters
With four core functions – trade promotion, investment cooperation, innovation aggregation, and knowledge exchange – the expo serves as a barometer for Asia’s evolving economic priorities. This year’s digital technology section features interactive demonstrations, including robot dogs performing acrobatics and humanoid machines mastering the ancient game of Go.
What to Expect
Over 1,000 exhibitors from 50+ countries and regions will gather at the China International Exhibition Center. Business leaders and policymakers are particularly focused on how emerging technologies could optimize manufacturing workflows and create new cross-border partnerships.
The event comes as global supply chains increasingly prioritize resilience and digital integration, with Asia accounting for 53% of worldwide robotics adoption in 2023 according to expo organizers.
