IFA – International Consumer Electronics Fair Berlin

The IFA – International Consumer Electronics Fair Berlin was first held in 1924 and has become a premier global event where manufacturers and traders of consumer electronics and home appliances showcase new products and engage in business and technological exchanges. IFA serves as a key platform for European wholesalers, buyers, and home appliance retailers to network and source products, making it the world’s largest and most influential consumer electronics exhibition to date.

Since 2017, the original IFA CityCube Berlin Expo Center has been reserved exclusively for brand exhibitors, while all OEM/ODM participants and international pavilions have relocated to IFA Global Markets@Station Berlin. IFA is a leading international venue for showcasing cutting-edge consumer electronics, reflecting the latest industry trends, and providing an unparalleled opportunity for networking, product launches, customer engagement, and brand promotion. IFA stands alongside CES in the United States as one of the world’s preeminent consumer electronics exhibitions.

This technological extravaganza, themed “The Future Is Here,” brought together over 1,900 brands from around the globe, highlighting groundbreaking advancements in artificial intelligence, robotics, smart home technologies, and future mobility. At the opening ceremony, robotics and AI clearly took center stage.

As one of the world’s three major consumer electronics trade shows, this year’s IFA hosted more than 1,900 exhibitors from 49 countries and regions, attracting an estimated audience of over 220,000 visitors worldwide.

A notable trend at this year’s IFA is the transition of AI from virtual realms into tangible applications. Leif Lindner, head of the exhibition organizer, emphasized that artificial intelligence is no longer confined to content generation or complex task processing but is increasingly integrated into the physical world, deeply converging with robotics.

In the IFA Next innovation zone, humanoid robots emerged as the standout attraction, with a record number of exhibits. Chinese robotics companies virtually dominated this area, with brands such as Unitree, Zhiyuan, and Zhongqing presenting humanoid robots capable of performing tai chi, playing soccer, and engaging in martial arts demonstrations—drawing significant public interaction and engagement. Such hands-on, physically interactive AI experiences clearly resonate far more strongly with audiences than purely conversational AI approaches.

IFA CEO Leif Lindner explained the theme for 2027 by noting that this slogan reflects a shift in mindset: technologies once considered distant and merely showcased in demo presentations are now firmly embedded in everyday life, transforming how people live and work.
