The fourth BEYOND International Technology Innovation Expo (BEYOND Expo 2024) came to a conclusion in China's Macao Special Administrative Region on Saturday.
The four-day event, organized by the Macao Technology General Association, showcased the latest advancements and trends in technological innovation across various sectors, attracting over 20,000 participants from across the world.
The sci-tech expo, with an exhibition area of nearly 100,000 square meters and almost 1,000 exhibitors, focused on three areas: consumer technology, life sciences, climate and low-carbon technology.
During the expo, activities such as startup competitions and thematic forums also took place, giving participating companies and entrepreneurs important platforms to display their technological advancements and expand their business.
Yan Qingxi, an exhibitor from China's leading AI company iFLYTEK, said, "This is the third time in a row that we’ve participated in the expo. We have brought some products related to large-scale (AI) models this time. Attending this expo helps advance the implementation of our AI (projects) in Macao and the (Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao) Greater Bay Area."
"Participating in this expo allows us to connect with a variety of resources both locally and internationally. We've also learned more about the benefits for young entrepreneurs to start businesses in Macao and Hengqin (an economic cooperation zone in Guangdong Province near Macao) and the relevant supportive policies. This makes us more confident about launching projects in Macao and Hengqin," said another Chinese exhibitor Long Pinfu.
"It's a very good platform for startups to come and showcase their technologies and innovation. So, I think it brings all of them in one space. And there is a lot of amazing side panels and panels happening. So, you get a lot of insights on what is happening in different industries and different sectors," said an international exhibitor Mach at the expo.
