With approximately 400 exhibitors spread across 15,000 square meters, APE 2027 offers a comprehensive overview of the photonics industry in the Asia-Pacific region. The 2026 trade show already attracted over 5,500 trade visitors and 353 exhibitors. The supporting program includes networking events such as a gala dinner, business matchmaking, and plant tours.
As Asia’s leading technology and innovation hub, Singapore offers German companies an ideal gateway to the growing markets of Southeast Asia.
