“China represents a significant market for us, and we anticipate increasing our market share and presence here. Overall, Automechanika Shanghai offers a valuable opportunity to enhance our international portfolio as it acts as a bridge between China and international markets. As a landmark automotive industry exhibition, it creates opportunities for professionals worldwide and is renowned among those throughout the automotive value chain.”

“While our company is steady, innovative, and collaborative, Automechanika Shanghai has been exceptional, showcasing top-tier participants, and diverse offerings that exceeded our expectations. The lively activity at our booth reflects the exhibition’s prominent position in the industry, gathering key players from across the industry chain and facilitating engagement with leading domestic and international brands. The variety of dedicated areas, concurrent activities, along with the online and offline interactions, have enriched our experience and amplified the event’s impact on the industry.”

“Our participation in the Changzhou pavilion at Automechanika Shanghai surpassed all hopes. The pavilion presented an overview of a new energy vehicle supply chain and support system. We found approximately 30 percent of visitors at our booth were from overseas coming to learn about Star Charge and our energy initiatives. We see Automechanika Shanghai as a platform for industry integration, cutting-edge technologies, and trends that foster collaboration in the aftermarket.”

“Our booth has been very busy, attracting potential high-quality customers, particularly from Southeast Asia and Central Asia. This year’s exhibition focused heavily on technology, featuring numerous forums on new energy innovations. This provided valuable insights into the latest advancements from vehicle manufacturers, which will guide our technical research.”

“This is my first time attending Automechanika Shanghai and it surpassed my expectations. The organiser’s business matching services facilitated efficient communication with suppliers, saving a lot of time and energy. I found competitive Chinese factories and suppliers through the show. Both exhibitors and buyers were highly professional. I look forward to attending again if given the opportunity.”

“The China market is huge, capturing over 30 percent of worldwide production. Automechanika Shanghai reflects this scale and is one of our biggest resources to meet with domestic suppliers. Through the business matching provided by the organisers, we have met a number of highly qualified and reliable potential partners. The set up and overall arrangement of this service is definitely helpful, and the conversation is very fruitful for my future considerations of new suppliers.”

“At the International Automotive Industry Talent Development Conference 2024, I gained valuable insights. The speakers’ inspiring presentations and innovative themes opened new perspectives and sparked my vision for the future of the automotive industry. In this rapidly changing era, embracing transformation and continuous learning are increasingly important, making this conference an excellent educational opportunity.”

“We were very interested to see the Innovation4Mobility Mainstage featuring key industry themes. Green, innovation, and sustainability are important for the industry’s future, and the development of hydrogen energy is undoubtedly a major trend. Automechanika Shanghai’s fringe programme is well-known for offering cutting-edge industry insights and practical experiences.”

“I discussed how trade has transformed our industry, focusing on shifting patterns, the aftermarket’s adaption, and China’s strengths in these areas. The aftermarket now thrives on innovation, collaboration, and technology, with trade shows playing a crucial role in fostering partnerships. Automechanika Shanghai highlights challenges and opportunities, emphasising the demand for knowledge and connection. The audience expressed great interest in our nearly 20-year partnership with this event, which is invaluable for our collective growth.”

“I believe environmental protection, sustainability, and diversity are the future of the industry. I hope this forum opens new perspectives and revitalises automotive manufacturing by moving us beyond single energy technologies and into diverse energy paths. This year’s exhibition had a vibrant atmosphere, with significantly increased forum attendance, attracting many professionals dedicated to business development and product research. This encourages us as speakers, knowing that each presentation is valuable to the audience.”
