Unlike its past sessions, the fifth China (Taiyuan) International Energy Industry Expo, which will be opened on Sept 16 in Shanxi’s China Taiyuan Coal Transaction Center, will move some of its exhibitions onto the internet. Through the use of mobile internet such as a website, WeChat and a mobile phone client, the fifth event will enable the customers’ access to the latest products, technology and development concepts in the energy field.
This year’s expo will include the enterprises of Fortune 500 working in the domestic and overseas energy industry, leading energy industry players, investment organizations and research institutes, and about 200 energy enterprises from home and abroad will be exhibiting at the expo.
This show is designed not only to show off products and equipment but also for enterprise branding promotion, policy inquiries and technology promotions.
The 2014 Energy Industry Expo’s online version, by making use of the successful experience of other household exhibitions, has mapped out five columns, namely: introduction, news center, summit forum, online exhibition halls, and investment promotion. Three language versions are available: simplified Chinese, traditional Chinese and English. The Expo’s mobile phone client and official WeChat account will also be opened.
The online expo will not be closed after its opening. It will link up with the next session’s offline expo, so as to create an online expo that is always available. Even after the conclusion of the Expo, the online platform will still provide services for exhibitors.
The low-carbon development summit forum of the fifth energy industry expo is themed on “High-Carbon Resources and Low-Carbon Development, Black Coal and Green Development”. Sub-forums focus on low-carbon technologies, low-carbon economy and a teenage low-carbon sub-forum will also be held. Speeches will be given by Li Xiaopeng, governor of Shanxi province. Eric S. Maskin, the winner of the 2007 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics and Fei Weiyang, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences are expected at the forums.
The China (Taiyuan) International Energy Industry Expo is the only national, international and professional exhibition of China in the energy industry, and was initiated in 2007.
