The pulse of the electronics industry in Eurasia is about to beat stronger than ever. The 28th International Exhibition of Electronics, ExpoElectronica 2026, is set to take place from April 14-16, 2026, at the Crocus Expo in Moscow, solidifying its position as the largest and most influential event of its kind in Russia and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU).
The Unrivaled Hub for the Electronics Industry
For over 27 years, ExpoElectronica has served as the cornerstone business event for the electronics sector, connecting developers, manufacturers, distributors, and end-users across the entire production chain. The 2026 edition promises to be the largest yet, building on the remarkable success of previous years. Organizers anticipate the participation of over 800 companies from more than 20 countries, attracting upwards of 23,000 professional visitors from 70 regions of Russia. In 2025, the event drew 760 exhibitors and 22,473 unique visitors, with an astounding 93% of attendees holding purchasing decision influence within their organizations.
What truly sets ExpoElectronica apart is its comprehensive scope, showcasing the complete journey of electronics manufacturing—from raw components and microelectronics to the development and assembly of finished systems. This holistic approach makes it an indispensable event for anyone involved in the design, production, or procurement of electronic products.
Four Pillars of Innovation: Key Exhibition Sections
ExpoElectronica 2026 will be organized around four key thematic sections, each representing a critical segment of the industry:
1. Electronic Components, Modules, and Components
This foundational section unites suppliers and manufacturers of semiconductors, passive and electromechanical components, enclosures, and modules. It showcases solutions for designing and assembling modern electronic systems, including printed circuit boards, power electronics, sensors, displays, and marking technologies. In 2025, this section drew the highest interest, with over 13,200 visitors exploring the latest in component technology.
2. Technologies, Equipment, and Materials for Electronics Manufacturing
A professional platform dedicated to the full production cycle, this section features equipment for surface mount technology (SMT), testing and inspection, assembly materials, and solutions for designing production facilities. It attracts manufacturers and suppliers offering cutting-edge machinery for microelectronics production and final device assembly.
3. Embedded Systems
Where innovation meets practical application, this segment highlights backplane-modular and single-board computers, systems-on-module, peripheral devices, and software for embedded applications. Special attention is given to industrial computers, data storage solutions, RISC-V-based platforms, and trusted computing platforms. With over 3,100 visitors expressing interest in 2025, it remains a vital area for specialized professionals.
4. Robotics and Artificial Intelligence
One of the fastest-growing sections, this area reflects the most current technological trends. Exhibitors present industrial, service, medical, logistics, agricultural, and educational robotic systems, alongside AI platforms and control systems. In 2025, nearly 4,000 visitors explored this dynamic section.
A Powerful Synergy: Co-location with ExpoCifra
A defining feature of ExpoElectronica is its simultaneous co-location with ExpoCifra, the International Exhibition of Information Technologies and Solutions for Digital Transformation. This strategic pairing creates a powerful symbiosis, bringing together hardware developers from ExpoElectronica with software and IT solution providers from ExpoCifra. The result is a unique ecosystem fostering collaboration and enabling the integration of electronics with cutting-edge digital solutions, opening new avenues for joint development and large-scale, high-tech projects. For attendees, this means access to over 12,000 industrial enterprises represented across both shows.
Extensive Business Program and Networking
Beyond the exhibition floor, ExpoElectronica offers a rich conference program spanning three dynamic days, featuring dozens of thematic sessions, conferences, and presentations. Industry experts and leaders share invaluable insights on topics including:
- The future of the electronics industry and market segment growth
- Challenges in industrial electronics and international collaboration
- Hardware and software integration strategies
- Cost-effective electronics production
- Import substitution and technological independence
The event also provides numerous networking opportunities, with 66% of 2025 exhibitors reporting they found new clients at the exhibition. A lead-scanning service helps exhibitors maximize their connections and streamline follow-up activities.
Government Support and International Recognition
The significance of ExpoElectronica is underscored by official support from key government bodies, including the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation. The event has also received UFI (The Global Association of the Exhibition Industry) certification, affirming its status as a world-class international exhibition. Major industry players and associations serve as partners and sponsors, further validating its importance as the premier gathering for the Eurasian electronics community.
Gateway to the Russian and Eurasian Market
For international companies, ExpoElectronica represents a strategic gateway to the vast Russian and EAEU market. With Russia’s strong focus on import substitution and technological sovereignty, there is significant demand for advanced electronic components, manufacturing equipment, and finished products. Attendees include decision-makers with substantial purchasing authority—36% of visitors represent companies with procurement budgets ranging from 50 million to 500 million rubles. Exhibitors gain direct access to developers, distributors, integrators, and end-users actively seeking new partnerships and solutions.
