The annual China Marine Economy Expo (CMEE) will take place from 28 to 30 October 2025 at the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center in Shenzhen, China. The event, supported by national and municipal authorities, is set to become a major gathering for the global marine economy, showcasing technologies, services and business opportunities across the maritime domain.
Spanning more than 40,000 mΒ² of exhibition space, CMEE 2025 is expected to host over 300 exhibitors and attract in excess of 50,000 professional visitors. The wide-ranging show covers key sectors including marine energy (offshore oil & gas, offshore wind, ocean photovoltaics, marine hydrogen, power transmission, energy storage and smart operations); deep-sea mining and related extraction technologies; intelligent marine equipment (smart vessels, ports, shipping systems); marine electronics and data systems; modern marine services (ecological protection, finance, legal, logistics); marine biopharmaceuticals (bio-active substances, aquaculture, diagnostics, cosmetics) and coastal tourism (marine resorts, sustainable tourism, leisure equipment).
Visitors will have the opportunity not only to source new products and services but also to attend high-level forums and professional conferences. These sessions are designed to deliver insight into industry policies, emerging technologies and collaborative business models, helping to connect market players from offshore energy developers to marine technology providers, tourism operators to biopharmaceutical researchers.
Situated in the heart of the rapidly developing GuangdongβHong KongβMacao Greater Bay Area, the venue offers exhibitors and delegates a strategic gateway to Chinaβs growing marine economy and the broader Asia-Pacific region. The 2024 edition of the expo emphasised the role of the marine-economy sector in driving innovation and regional growth.
As the maritime sector evolves toward greater digitalisation, sustainability and cross-industry integration, the 2025 edition of CMEE is poised to serve as a vital platform for forging partnerships, exploring future-oriented technologies and capturing new market opportunities across the global blue economy.
