that brings together designers from 12 countries and regions

design, lead the industry to the new era of design innovation and
carry forward oriental design based on unique views and new
design ideas.
Perfect Facilities and Services
The NECC is the world's largest single building and exhibition
complex and has a gross floor area of 1.47 million square meters,
equal to 206 standard football fields. It offers 400,000
square meters of indoor and 100,000 square meters of outdoor
exhibition venues, ranking second in the world in terms of
exhibition area. Conveniently located near the airport,
high-speed train and expressway network, event organizers will

kind in China to establish
the "Intellectual Property Service Window" at the exhibitions,
working with related government departments, legal experts and
lawyers to protect exhibitors.
