Taking place between 26 – 28 June 2024, thousands of attendees will soon gather at the Shanghai New International Expo Center (SNIEC) and Kerry Hotel Pudong, Shanghai to discover the mobile technologies that will shape businesses and societies in the years to come.

Once inside the event, attendees will have five halls to explore including familiar favourite the Super Hall located in N3, where you’ll find China Mobile, China Telecom, ZTE and the GSMA Pavilion.

New for this year, the Connected Industries zone will make its debut at MWC Shanghai in Hall N4 with influential investors, decision makers and thought leaders creating a truly digital future, building on its success from MWC Barcelona. The Future Tech Hall will also be in Hall N4 and spread into N5, where frontier technology companies will showcase their latest innovations. Visitors to the space will see cutting-edge industrial applications of AI and see the latest advancements in this rapidly evolving technology from exhibitors, including electric vehicle pioneer NIO, who will show their vehicle-centric interconnection technology.

Making sustainable choices at MWC Shanghai 

For those attending MWC Shanghai, we’ve created guidance to help attendees, exhibitors and partners make sustainable choices to help reduce the environmental impact of our event. 

Our GSMA Environmental Programme focuses on five key areas – energy, production and waste, food and waste food, logistics, and travel and accommodation. It encompasses small steps that everybody can take, such as the use of public transport to reach the venue or the MWC Series app to enter the event, to larger commitments like recycling, rather than contributing to Shanghai’s landfill. 

MWC Shanghai is the largest carbon-neutral exhibition and conference in Asia, having been certified carbon neutral since 2015 and officially certified under the PAS 2060 standard by Aenor International last year. Find out more here.
