HKTDC will present four major technology exhibitions: the Hong Kong Electronics Fair (Autumn Edition), electronicAsia, the Hong Kong International Lighting Fair (Autumn Edition), and the Hong Kong International Outdoor and Tech Light Expo, featuring over 6,200 exhibitors from 27 countries and regions.
- The Autumn Electronics Fair focuses on areas such as artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics, featuring a dedicated event space called “RoboPark,” which will showcase robots for commercial, rehabilitation, and residential applications; along with a new exhibition zone, RISE Avenue, highlighting emerging brands.
- The Autumn Lighting Fair will showcase a wide range of award-winning designs, featuring lighting products used in world-renowned projects – including LED drivers and fixtures applied at Gardens by the Bay in Singapore, and lighting control systems implemented at the Sanxingdui Museum, the BBC Headquarters in London, and the M+ Museum.In a policy address on AI and robotics delivered by the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, several initiatives related to artificial intelligence (AI) and technological innovation were proposed. These measures aim to promote AI as a core industry for Hong Kong’s future development. The four major autumn technology fairs align with this policy direction, featuring dedicated exhibition areas and sessions focused on AI, robotics, smart lighting, and digital entertainment. These events provide a platform for the industry to showcase innovative achievements, foster collaboration, and leverage Hong Kong’s role as a global hub to expand into new markets and capture new business opportunities.
The fair will place special emphasis on AI and robotics, the silver economy, and digital entertainment. Members of “Hangzhou’s Six Little Dragons” will be present, including DEEP Robotics, which will showcase the X30 Quadruped Robodog, designed for applications in inspection operations as well as search and rescue missions. BrainCo will present Revo2, a dexterous bionic hand that can serve as a prosthetic. Featuring multiple active joints that simulate the natural movements of a human hand, it enables precise and flexible control. Meanwhile, PaXini Tech, one of “Shenzhen’s Eight Great Guardians of Embodied Intelligence,” will exhibit a humanoid robot equipped with advanced tactile sensing and AI vision, underscoring breakthroughs in perception, decision-making, and execution. The exhibition will also feature a dedicated RoboPark event space, hosting over 30 sessions with speakers from leading robotics companies, including Booster Robotics and Unitree Robotics from Mainland China. Live demonstrations will take place at the venue to illustrate how the latest robotics technologies can be applied across commercial, rehabilitation, and everyday living settings.
In relation to new applications for the Silver Economy, several exhibitors will showcase smart GPS walking canesdesigned specifically for the elderly. These canes integrate advanced features such as real-time GPS tracking, emergency alert systems, and obstacle detection technologies. Another key highlight will be digital entertainment.
