29-Sep-2006

According to the organizers, this year's ANALYTICA China confirmed its significance as a meeting place and business platform for analysis, biotechnology, diagnostics and laboratory technology in China as well as in Asia. Following a successful premiere in Shanghai in 2002, AnalyticaChina 2006 has set new records during the three-day event, which was held from 19 - 21 September 2006 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre in Shanghai. Compared to the last edition, which took place in 2004, the amount of floor space covered by the exhibition rose by more than 64% to a total of 11,500 square meters, and the number of exhibitors has increased by 34% to 268. With 8,557 attendees, AnalyticaChina 2006 registered a 30-percent increase compared to the last edition. These positive numbers reflect the growing interest that foreign companies are taking in the Chinese market and underscore the continuing importance of trade shows as business and networking platforms. With 39 companies, Germany has the largest contingent of exhibitors, followed by the national pavilions from Spain, Great Britain, and the Wallonia region of Belgium.

Exhibitors and visitors appreciated the exhibition itself as well as the program of related events. This year has seen the successful opening of the AnalyticaChina Conference's third session, and its speakers included internationally-renowned scientists. "This year's AnalyticaChina Conference stresses the needs of engineers and scientists in different applications (such as Quality Control, Food Safety, Environment Protection, etc.), and the speakers represent the whole spectrum of the analytics and bio-analytics industries. Thus, this event has taken a firm step on its way towards becoming a high-level international scientific conference," said Prof. Qiu from the China Chemistry Society, which is also one of the conference's co-organizers. A special conference for addressing analytical solutions for RoHS in the field of electronic production was held on the second day of the show. The speakers came from leading agencies and instrument manufacturers, such as SGS, AnalytikJena, Shimadzu, Thermo and others.
