The 20th "China Optics Valley" International Optoelectronics Expo (abbreviated as Wuhan Optics Expo/OVC EXPO) will be held at Wuhan China Optics Valley Science and Technology Exhibition Center from May 15 to 17, 2025. It is expected that there will be nearly 400 exhibitors, more than 30,000 professional visitors, and more than 20 conferences and special events.
Since its launch in 2002, Wuhan Optics Expo has developed into one of China's highest-standard and most influential optoelectronic information professional exhibitions. It is an efficient link between R&D, manufacturing, downstream applications and government resources, precise procurement and supply docking, and the best exhibition platform for deep cultivation of the central and western markets. It has attracted more than 6,000 well-known companies from more than 40 countries and regions around the world to participate in the exhibition, nearly 600,000 professional visitors visited, and more than 200 professional conferences were held during the same period.
In 2025, the global optoelectronic information industry will enter a period of breakthroughs in multiple fields and cross-integration innovation. China's overall economy will tighten, the optoelectronic market will grow sluggishly, the industry's internal competition will intensify, and uncertainty will rise. The Optical Fair will take 6 major measures to deepen the central and western markets, promote industry-university-research collaboration, expand overseas business, implement digital marketing, and hold more than 20 diversified industry conferences. It will do a solid job in organizing audiences in the fields of automotive engineering, new energy, aerospace, shipbuilding heavy industry, machinery manufacturing, pan-semiconductors, and biomedicine, and take into account overseas buyers' invitations to help exhibitors take root and penetrate the vast and uneven optoelectronic market in the central and western regions. We will rely on market demand to connect with the "industry-university-research-use" industrial chain resources and central and local policy resources of China Optics Valley, connect with overseas optoelectronic research institutions, and strive to promote the convergence of light chasers at the forefront of high-power lasers, micro-nano processing, precision optics, intelligent sensing, optical communication optical chips, optoelectronic fusion, and other technologies with those who are deeply engaged in industry, and help companies find growth points for upward breakthroughs.
With the theme of "Light Connects Everything, Intelligence Leads the Future", this conference will invite leaders of relevant ministries and commissions, representatives of Chinese and foreign academicians and experts, pioneers and leaders of the optoelectronics industry to attend. It will carefully organize more than 20 conference activities, including the Optoelectronics Information Industry Conference, POEM Summit, Laser Industry Summit, International Laser Summit, Silicon Photonics Industry Conference, Optical Network Applications in the AI Era Seminar, Optical Chip Packaging and Testing Seminar, Automotive Electronics Applications Conference, Advanced Lithography Seminar, Micro-Nano Optoelectronics Summit, 2025 China Top Ten Optical Industry Technology Awards Ceremony and Industry Innovation Conference, Optics Valley Open Day, etc., to promote the exchange of ideas and personal connections among government, industry, academia, research and application, and accurately grasp the development trend of the industry and the market and business trends.
