SHANGHAI - Reserved exhibition space for next month's Nepcon China/EMT China has surpassed last year's final size and more than 20% growth is expected, according to conference organizers.

The trade show, which takes place next month, will feature 700 exhibiting companies from 21 countries. Reed Exhibitions, which manages the show, forecasts 15,000 attendees from the Pacific Rim.

New for 2005 is the Soldering Zone, a showcase of the latest products and technology in soldering technology. "We are excited to be exhibiting our latest soldering equipment at the Soldering Zone. It's a rare opportunity for us to reach quality decision makers and gives us very focused platform," says David Chen, general manager of Ersa.

The show takes place April 12-15, in Shanghai. Visit reedexpo.com for details.

Nepcon is home to suppliers of equipment and materials for electronics assembly. EMT China, which is co-located with Nepcon China, focuses on component manufacturing, electronics manufacturing services and test and measurement.

The growth of the event is a reflection of the local market, Reed says. By year's end, China's electronics manufacturing base will grow by $65 billion, an increase of 135% over 2003, according to the International Finance Group. The forecasted value of China's electronics market: $247 billion.
