The 2018 China (Hunan) International Rail Transit Industrial Expo will be held at the Changsha International Convention and Exhibition Center from Nov 15 to 17, exhibiting state-of-the-art products and the latest technologies, materials and devices for rail transit.

More than 200 leading enterprises from related industries have confirmed their participation in the expo, including China Railway Rolling Stock Co (CRRC), the world's largest train builder, and China Railway Signal & Communication Co (CRSC), the world’s biggest rail transit system solutions provider. Domestic and foreign professional audience registration has also exceeded expectations.

The expo, covering an exhibition area of more than 40,000 square meters, will be held by the China Railway Society, the Hunan branch of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade and the Changsha municipal government.

In addition to the exhibition of first-class level rail transit products, the expo will carry out a number of professional forums on urban rail transit development and related topics. The forums will focus on the forefront of the industry's open, front-line and international issues, so as to speed up the development and expand the international influence of China's rail transit industry.

Hundreds of foreign dignitaries and business representatives from more than 20 countries and regions are expected to attend the expo this year, and more than a dozen foreign enterprises, such as the French Rail Group and Ahead, are expected to join the exhibition. Buyers from Germany, Japan and other countries will also be in attendance.
