The China SMT Forum will be held in China’s main commercial centre Shanghai. The city is the gateway to the booming Yangtze River Delta, which serves as a basis for leading domestic and international electronic manufacturers.

Besides its economic character, Shanghai presents itself as an international city with modern infrastructure as well as cultural highlights. The skyscrapers of Pudong, which are right opposite the Bund with its colonial buildings, the shopping streets Nanjing Road and Huaihai Road, the French Quarter with its small shops and cafes as well as numerous temples, monasteries, and museums form a colourful picture of a city that never sleeps.
