“The 2018 NEPCON China series featured a combined 1,350 world-famous brands who displayed new technologies, equipment and materials.  We welcomed 84,146 trade visitors who came to discover industry opportunities.

“In 2019, we’ll hold a NEPCON event in Meishan for the first time.  We’re looking forward to bringing our successful operations and management experience, as well as our extensive exhibition industry resources to the city.  Innovative development models, new technologies and enhanced interaction and communication between businesses will all be at the forefront.
