Introduction

THE 20TH OPTICS VALLEY OF CHINA INTERNATIONAL OPTOELECTRONIC EXPOSITION (referred to as OVC EXPO) will take place from May 15th to 17th, 2025, at the China Optics Valley Convention and Exhibition Center in Wuhan. It is expected to attract nearly 400 exhibitors and over 30,000 professional visitors, with more than 20 conferences and special events scheduled.

Since its inception in 2002, OVC EXPO has evolved into one of China's most prestigious and influential professional exhibitions in the optoelectronics and information field. It serves as an optimal platform for efficiently connecting R&D, manufacturing, downstream applications, and government resources, facilitating precise supply and demand matching, and strategically targeting the central and western markets. Over the years, it has drawn more than 6,000 well-known companies from over 40 countries and regions worldwide, and nearly 600,000 professional visitors have attended. More than 200 specialized conferences have been held alongside.

In 2025, the global optoelectronics and information industry is entering a phase of multi-field breakthroughs and cross-disciplinary innovation. Meanwhile, China's overall economy is tightening, the optoelectronics market is experiencing sluggish growth, industry competition is intensifying, and uncertainties are on the rise. In response, OVC EXPO will implement six major strategies to deeply explore the central and western markets, promote collaboration among industry, academia, and research, expand overseas business, implement digital marketing, and host over 20 diverse industry conferences. We will diligently organize audiences from sectors such as automotive engineering, new energy, aerospace, shipbuilding, mechanical manufacturing, semiconductor-related industries, and biomedical fields, while also inviting overseas buyers. This will help exhibitors to firmly establish themselves and penetrate the vast yet uneven optoelectronics market in the central and western regions. We will rely on market demand and connect with the "industry-academia-research-application" industrial chain resources of Optics Valley of China, as well as policy resources from both central and local governments. We will also link with overseas optoelectronics research institutions. Our goal is to bring together trailblazers in cutting-edge technologies such as high-power lasers, micro-nano processing, precision optics, intelligent sensing, optical communication and photonic chips, and optoelectronics integration. By doing so, we aim to assist enterprises in finding new growth opportunities for upward breakthroughs.
