During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the development of China's electronic information industry is facing new situations and new characteristics. With the accelerating pace of building "new infrastructures" such as 5G, AI, industrial Internet and IoT to form a new pattern of "dual circulation", the industries like new display and IC have been rapidly transferred to China, which not only has brought new application prospects, but also forward urgent demands for strategic advanced electronic materials. According to the "14th Five-Year Plan", Guangdong Province and its cities are actively implementing the Outline of Outline Development Plan for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area to accelerate the development of strategic emerging industries and future industries and further enhance Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area's supporting and leading role in China’s economic development and opening up. Now, an electronic information industry cluster on the eastern bank of the Pearl River has been initially formed, with Guangzhou and Shenzhen as R&D centers and Dongguan and Huizhou as production bases. At the same time, a national digital economy innovation and development pilot zone to promote future urban scenario applications and integration, and a national new generation AI innovation and development pilot zone have come into being. CITE actively relying on the advantages of the central cities of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, is accelerating the innovation and upgrading of the industrial chain to realize the mutual promotion of industrial economy and regional economy and foster a high-quality cooperation platform.

With nearly 25 professional exhibition areas in nine exhibition pavilions, including CITE Theme Pavilion, AI Technology Application Pavilion, IIoT and Intelligent Manufacturing Pavilion, New Generation Information and Communication Industry Cluster Pavilion, New Display and Application Pavilion, E-Life Pavilion, Big Data Cloud Computing Pavilion, IoV Technology Pavilion and Basic Electronics Pavilion, the Expo will effectively connect the resources and systems of "politics, production, learning, research and application", actively integrate into international scientific and technological innovation, and comprehensively deeply drive exchange and cooperation in terms of electronic information consumption technology. Moreover, by combining the the advantages of industrial brands, the platform will fully display the latest development achievements and trends of the electronic information industry in the intelligent era for the industry via various activities such as technological innovation forums, keynote speeches, industry vertical thematic forums, awards ceremony, etc., so as to build itself world-leading display platform in the field of electronic information technology.
