Exhibition Centres in Asia
China’s exhibition capacity: More than 11 times larger than Japan
Since 2005 the number of exhibition venues in Asia increased from 101 to 175, of which 95 venues (= 68%) are located in China.
In 2010 the region’s capacity will reach more then 6 mil. sqm, a 6% increase from 5.67 mil. sqm in 2009. Japan, India and Korea will by the end of 2010 have 12 venues each, the next highest number compared to China.
This is one of the results of the new report produced by Business Strategies Group Ltd. (BSG) in Hong Kong.
The consequence: Whereas China is approaching overcapacities in some regions, the Indian subcontinent still lacks state-of-the-are venues, mainly in its economic heart, the metropolis of
Mumbai.
