Asia Photonics Expo (APE), the world's leading photonics platform for branding and business connections, will take place from March 6th to 8th, 2024, at Marina Bay Sands Singapore. Organized by Informa Markets, the world's leading tradeshow organizer, and supported by Singapore Tourism Board (STB), APE focuses on showcasing cutting-edge innovative technologies and emerging application markets in Asia. The event aims to facilitate in-depth communication and business collaboration among professional in the photonics industry, both upstream and downstream. With an exhibition area of 15,000 square meters, APE is expected to attract over 400 exhibitors and 5,000 visitors. It will serve as the one-stop photonics platform for technical communication, networking, and product sourcing.
According to data analysis by SHANGPU GROUP, as the new generation of information technology advanced rapidly, the global photonics industry market is expected to enter a stable development stage in 2023, with an estimated value of $1.4 trillion, representing a year-on-year increase of approximately 10%. Among these figures, the Asian market is projected to maintain a stable share of 63%. Moreover, with the global wave of industrial transfer, an increasing number of manufacturing industries are shifting from China to Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand, Vietnam, India, Malaysia, etc. In light of the thriving development of Asia's photonics industry and the adjustments in the global industrial and supply chain, it becomes crucial to seize the opportunities in emerging markets and expand into new business frontier. Effective face-to-face communication plays a vital role in achieving this.
Fully Displaying the Entire Photonics Industry Chain
As the most influential photonics exhibition in Asia, APE leverages its comprehensive platform to connect the entire industry chain and showcase the complete photonics ecosystem. The exhibition will feature detailed displays covering the latest global products from materials, components, modules, and devices to various photonics applications in optical communication, precision optics, laser, infrared, sensor, and display. Pavilions from Taiwan, Hong Kong, Fuzhou, Xiamen, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, the USA, Europe, and other countries and regions will debut at APE 2024, highlighting the internationalization of the exhibition. More than 100 well-known enterprises, including Yokogawa, AMETEK, NTS, Dopa, Asphericon, GF Machining Solutions, Polytec, VIAVI SOLUTIONS, Acexon, CompoundTek, Santec, Sindi, Optizone, Hitronics, FOCtek Photonics, Neuvition, RAYSEES, CEM, Daheng New Epoch Technology, etc., have reserved their booths. Currently, over 75% of APE 2024 booth reservations have been filled.
A Wide Range of Concurrent Events
APE is committed to empowering the photonics industry and application fields by providing a high-quality communication, exchange and learning platform. The exhibition will host a variety of high-end concurrent events, including seminars, academic conferences, and industry forums.
Asia Light Conference 2024 is the academic conference of APE, hosted by journals Light: Science & Applications, eLight, and Light: Advanced Manufacturing. Highlighted by UNESCO’s International Day of Light, Asia Light Conference 2024 consists of plenary session and 10 parallel keynote & invited sessions: Micro and Nanophotonics I, Micro and Nanophotonics II, Topological Photonics, Quantum Photonics, Nonlinear Photonics and Functional Lasers, Tunable Optoelectronics, Advanced Manufacturing, Terahertz Optoelectronics, Luminescence, and another pending session. With Asia Light Conference 2024, aim is to contribute to the wellbeing of optics frontiers and showcase the latest breakthroughs in optics and photonics.
Additionally, a series of photonics industry forums will be held, such as the Asia Optical Communication Industry Development Forum, Ultra Precision, Micro Nano Processing and Optical Testing Forum, Optical Technologies and Applications in Pan-Semiconductor Process Forum. These forums will discuss the latest progress in photonics technology development trends, technical issues and solutions, to explore future industry development, and to promote the sustainable growth of the photonics industry in Asia and beyond.
APE will also organize site tours for enterprises, providing opportunities for more in-depth learning and communication as companies visit research institutes, R&D centers, and local companies during the exhibition.
Upgrading Exhibition Core Values with Customized Marketing Solutions for Companies
During the exhibition, the world's leading photonic enterprises and end users in the fields of downstream applications, as well as industry experts will engage in face-to-face communications, exchanges, and cooperation through this professional platform. As an integrated platform for exchanges, brand building, and business cooperation, APE aims to enhance global visibility and provide exhibitors with customized marketing solutions to maximize their exhibiting benefits. Leveraging their expertise and extensive experience in exhibition management, the APE organizer is committed to delivering a world-class event that fosters in-depth communication among photonics professionals and drives business growth.
