The 17th Automechanika Shanghai will be postponed to December 1-4, 2022

In order to actively cooperate with the local government's epidemic prevention and control requirements, the 17th Automechanika Shanghai, originally scheduled to be held in late November this year , will be postponed to December 1-4, 2022 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai). Although this year's exhibition failed to take place as scheduled, the exhibition will still wholeheartedly provide diversified services to all parties involved in this transitional period and fully support the development of the global automotive ecosystem.

Ms. Cecilia Chow, Deputy General Manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, said: “In the past few weeks, we have been actively communicating with relevant parties and local authorities. After much consultation and careful consideration, and in line with the schedule of the global Automechanika brand exhibition, the new exhibition date of December 1-4, 2022 is the most appropriate decision at present. We are also very grateful for the understanding and tolerance of all parties during this special period.”

Mr. Xia Wendi, Chairman of China National Machinery Industry International Cooperation Co., Ltd., said: "In recent years, the healthy and orderly domestic circulation and strong overseas demand have enabled the Chinese automobile and parts market to continue to maintain strong growth. While we are full of confidence in the market, we will continue to be committed to building a new development pattern of exhibitions that is flexible, efficient, targeted and green, provide better services to enterprises, and further promote and drive the high-quality development of the entire automotive industry chain."

Automechanika Shanghai is one of the most influential automotive industry exhibitions in the world, dedicated to providing an industry service platform for colleagues in the automotive industry that integrates information exchange, industry promotion, trade services and industry education. Each exhibition reflects the latest market development trends, and through rich and diverse product displays and concurrent activities, it comprehensively presents the overall picture and hot spots of the development of the automotive industry. The exhibition also plays an important role in building a bridge for companies to expand into the domestic market and enter overseas business, and has become an important industry event that cannot be missed by industry insiders in the entire automotive industry chain. Therefore, from now until the new exhibition period, the exhibition will actively explore more effective channels, strengthen the connection between the automotive ecosystem, and help the development of the automotive industry.

In view of this, Automechanika Shanghai established an effective communication channel for exhibitors and participants through the AMS Live online platform during the original exhibition period. AMS Live brings together rich resources from all walks of life in the industry and has received great response, which reflects that as the global automotive market gradually recovers, the demand for automotive products and services is growing, and the industry has a more urgent need to use digital tools for business matching.

The AMS Live online platform brings together more than 2,900 domestic and overseas companies, allowing all parties involved to conduct efficient business matching, information interaction and resource sharing. The platform has been open for preview since November 10, 2021, and the interactive business service will be fully launched from November 24 to 27. Users can enjoy comprehensive functions such as intelligent matching, potential buyer information management and real-time data analysis.

So far, the AMS Live online platform has attracted visitors from 135 countries and regions including China, Germany, Russia, Turkey and the United States, with 226,400 page views. All functions of the platform will continue to be open until December 15, 2021, providing participants with more time to explore and enrich industry resources at home and abroad.

On the other hand, the platform also brought more than 50 exciting concurrent events and recorded programs, which received active participation and high praise from automotive industry insiders. Among them, the AIoT Technology to Help Commercial Vehicle Active Safety Upgrade Seminar and Dialogue - Automotive Industry Entrepreneurs (Shanghai Station) attracted 2,049 and 2,440 visitors respectively; at the same time, many exhibitors took advantage of the global influence of the exhibition to launch and display new products through the AMS Live online booth.

In addition, the "Match up" year-round business matching service has been committed to building professional business exchanges and cooperation opportunities for exhibitors and buyers. Since its first launch in August this year, the organizer's professional team has successfully facilitated as many as 1,900 online recommendations and appointments for business matching negotiations, establishing new opportunities for interconnection and communication for industry insiders at home and abroad.
