This includes Asia, Europe, Africa, Australasia, and the Americas. The Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) serves as the biannual event's host location.

This includes China, the Russian Federation, the United States, Germany, Brazil, and others. Such attendants present their latest innovations on an area of 155 000 m2, including over 30 national pavilions. Due to such reasons, 57% of the visitors attend to remain up-to-date on the latest modernisations. Additionally, 93% consider the event to be vital for their business. Also, 99% of the attending reconfirm their attendance for the next iteration.
