The Exhibition Value of the Shenzhen Low-Altitude Economy and Unmanned Systems Expo
- The Shenzhen Low-Altitude Economy Expo is one of the largest and most influential specialized events in the global low-altitude economy and unmanned systems sectors. Held concurrently with the World UAV Conference, it is widely recognized by industry professionals as a leading indicator of trends in the global drone industry and a central hub for innovation in the low-altitude economy. Co-hosted by the China UAV Industry Alliance and the Shenzhen UAV Industry Association, the expo leverages Shenzhen’s status as the “Drone Capital” to serve as a strategic platform for connecting global supply-chain resources, showcasing cutting-edge technological advancements, and guiding industry development trends.
- The core value of participation lies in its national-level endorsement and its unique advantage in precisely connecting exhibitors with a global network of professional buyers. Sharing the prestige of the “No. 1 Technology Show in China” with the China Hi-Tech Fair, the expo enjoys strong support from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Shenzhen Municipal People’s Government. In 2025, the event will bring together 825 exhibiting companies and attract over 130,000 professional visitors from more than 100 countries and regions worldwide, including over 6,000 international attendees, with an estimated on-site transaction value of approximately RMB 20 billion. These professional audiences comprise government regulatory bodies, investment institutions, operators, procurement specialists, and R&D decision-makers, providing exhibitors with a strategic gateway to engage directly with key global buyers.
- The expo has established a one-stop commercial platform that spans the entire low-altitude economy value chain. Exhibits cover all product categories, including complete drones, eVTOL aircraft, core components (chips, batteries, motors), navigation and communication systems, anti-drone technologies, advanced materials, and industry-specific application solutions. From consumer-grade drones to manned eVTOLs, and from industrial applications to urban air mobility, the expo fosters a fully integrated industrial ecosystem.
- Keeping pace with three major industry trends—eVTOL proliferation, low-altitude safety, and AI-driven empowerment—the expo has created a high‑tech hub characterized by deep integration among industry, academia, research, and end-users. In 2025, the expo features a dedicated eVTOL exhibition zone, where cutting-edge products such as Zhihang’s world‑first manned flying saucer eVTOL and Qifei Aviation’s five‑seat manned eVTOL will be showcased. Low-altitude safety has become a central focus, with companies like Shanghai Tejin and Jieneng Keshi presenting drone detection and countermeasure systems, as well as AI‑powered large‑scale models for low‑altitude airspace protection. Concurrently, the expo hosts more than 110 high‑level forums, bringing together over 550 academicians and experts to conduct in-depth discussions on前沿 topics such as digital low‑altitude transportation, hydrogen‑powered technologies, and airspace management.
- For Chinese enterprises, this expo serves as a strategic gateway to expand into global markets, connect with international resources, and showcase their innovative capabilities. Shenzhen is home to over 2,000 companies within the drone industry chain, with an annual output value exceeding RMB 100 billion, capturing 70% of the global consumer‑grade market and 40% of the industrial‑grade market. The expo has attracted purchasing delegations from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Brazil, and other countries, facilitating the adoption of five ISO‑standardized international drone standards led by Chinese firms. Through this platform, participating companies can access global procurement networks and seize early opportunities in the trillion‑yuan blue‑ocean market of the low‑altitude economy.
