Easy access to the Asian photonics market – European joint booth at the new APE 2024

APE 2024 – the Asia Photonics Expo (asiaphotonicsexpo.com) trade show will be held for the first time at the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore from March 6 – 8, 2024. The event sees itself as a new photonics platform that aims to provide awareness and access to new business contacts in the Asian market. Thematic focal points are e.g., optical communication, innovative manufacturing, semiconductor technology, sensor technology, metrology, and medical technology. To facilitate the move to Asia and the development of new business areas for companies from Europe, the network fair W3+ Fair (w3-fair.com) has joined forces with its partners IVAM (ivam.de) and EPIC (epic-assoc.com). Together, they are organizing the PHOTONICS+ Europe powered by W3+ Fair, IVAM and EPIC joint stand, which offers exhibitors a range of services and networking opportunities in addition to stand presentation. Registrations for the joint stand are now open at w3-fair.com/en/ape/.

Singapore as gateway to the Asian market

APE 2024 focuses on the latest innovative technologies and emerging user markets in Asia. The event aims to promote collaboration among experts along the entire photonics value chain. Companies will benefit from the strong business location of Singapore, which is considered an international hub for Asian trade, as well as from the ease of communication in English. To this end, the organizer expects the inaugural event to attract a great deal of attention.

"We are very excited about this exciting move to Asia. As a success-proven team with EPIC and IVAM, we bring a lot of experience to events and networking. All exhibitors will benefit from this," Jörg Brück, Project Director of the W3+ Fair, is convinced.

Dr. Thomas Dietrich, CEO of IVAM, adds: “Southeast Asia with the emerging ASEAN nations is increasingly developing into a high-tech region. Especially in times of reorientation of markets and supply chains, Singapore offers new attractive opportunities as a HUB for the entire region. IVAM has therefore already been supporting European companies in their entry into this market for several years.“

“Working with CIOE and the team of the W3+ Fair is the perfect combination to accompany European photonics companies to access the Asian market, I am extremely excited to have a European pavilion prominently present at Asia Photonics Expo!” says Carlos Lee, Director General of EPIC – European Photonics Industry Consortium.

About the W3+ Fair

The event traces its roots back to an industry imitative organised in Wetzlar and Mittelhessen, and its objective is to interlink the four sectors of optics, photonics, electronics and mechanics. The aim is that new interfaces and points of contact will pave the way for forward-looking technologies. The trade fair debuted at the Rittal Arena in Wetzlar in February 2014. The W3+ Fair is organised by the Hamburg-based company, FLEET Events (fleet-events.de). In 2019, the W3+ Fair Rhine Valley celebrated its premiere in the four-county region. In 2023, the organizer is expanding its portfolio to include the new W3+ Fair Jena.
