From April 14 to 16, a2021, analytica Vietnam opens its doors for the seventh time at the Saigon Exhibition & Convention Center in Ho Chi Minh City. The trade fair for laboratory technology, analysis, biotechnology and diagnostics is a spin-off of the world's leading trade fair analytica in Munich. Since its launch in 2009, analytica Vietnam has developed into one of the most important platforms for the industry in Southeast Asia. The exhibition is going to be accompanied by an extensive conference and supporting program that focuses on the exchange of specialist knowledge. Exhibitors Registrations for analytica Vietnam 2021 are now open.

Previous events have shown how attractive the Vietnamese market is for the international analysis, biotechnology and laboratory technology sector: in 2019, the trade fair grew to a record level in terms of exhibitors, visitors and exhibition space. 143 exhibitors from 15 countries occupied around 33% more space than in 2017, with 4,144 visitors from the field attending. In 268 buyer-seller meetings, exhibitors and visitors quickly found the right business contacts. In 2021, the organiser will again organise these free 20-minute meetings. China, Germany, Singapore and Taiwan, among others, will be represented at the trade fair with national pavilions. In addition, increased numbers of visitor delegations from neighbouring countries such as Cambodia and Laos are expected.

The comprehensive supporting program focuses entirely on the exchange of expertise. An important component is the analytica Vietnam conference. There, national and international experts will give lectures on the latest developments in the fields of biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, food and environmental analysis. Additionally, there will also be practice-oriented workshops, an Exhibitor Forum and live shows on safety in the laboratory. One day before the start of the trade fair, exhibitors will have the opportunity to gain an insight into selected laboratories on site in the course of a lab tour.

“With analytica Vietnam, biannually we bring together top-class international exhibitors, leading industry experts and several thousand visitors from the field. The event has earned itself an excellent reputation in the industry," said Gabriele Kraus, Executive Director of the trade fair organiser IMAG. Susanne Grödl, Exhibition Director at the analytica events, added: “In doing so, we want not only to create a platform to present the latest technologies and services in the industry but also to promote a comprehensive exchange of expert knowledge. For this know-how continues to be in great demand in Vietnam."
