As an exhibition platform dedicated to guiding the upgrading of industrial technology, the GILF has actively seized every opportunity in the smart lighting industry to develop smart light poles and followed the tendency of 5G and new infrastructure construction in Guzhen, in order to achieve the goal of "buying smart street lamps and launching 5G pilot programs in Guzhen".
Meanwhile, the GILF advocates original design and encourages exhibitors to display their latest original products, mainly mainstream personalized, customized, modularized and diversified original products. It also pays attention to product innovation and reform during the epidemic period and comprehensively exhibits the frontier wisdom and creativity of China's lighting industry. Zhongshan Fast-track IP Enforcement Center (ZFIPEC) set up a workstation in the fair to protect intellectual property rights in an all-round way.
Promote Industry Development both Online and Offline and Realize Accurate Production-Marketing Coordination by Launching Customized Services
In view that many overseas buyers are unable to visit the exhibition due to the epidemic, the Hosted Buyer Program Go Online will be held concurrently with the offline exhibition to provide an opportunity for Chinese enterprises to trade and communicate with global buyers uninterruptedly.
In March this year, the GILF launched an innovative online exhibition named Lighting e Fair on the B2B trading platform Denggle.com to gather the exhibitors and buyers in the cloud. In October, the Global Buyers Sourcing Online Exhibition further launched an exhibition trio: factory show, on-site booth, and B2B Denggle.com-EZBUY. With 2,500 exhibitors participating in the exhibition concurrently online and offline, this activity allows buyers to visit the exhibition online and communicate with supplier regardless of time and space constraints, and builds a three-dimensional exhibition window for export enterprises to seamlessly connect with overseas buyers, thus promoting efficient and quick trading between the supply and requisitioning parties.
The new purchase platform EXBUY combines big data recommendation with accurate manual screening to pick out matching suppliers for buyers from thousands of high-quality manufacturers. In doing so, it spares buyers the vexation of screening products and helps reduce the costs and improve the efficiency of enterprises. Many suppliers even reach out to buyers by providing products and quotes.
Live-streaming Events and Wonderful Forums Set a New Ideological Trend
The GILF has been committed to guiding innovation and upgrading and leading the industry trend. Wonderful forums held during the exhibition will gather professionals from the upper, middle and lower reaches of the industry as well as new technologies, new modes and other areas to share with them the latest trends and prospects of the lighting industry and optimize the policy chain, information chain, capital chain and industrial chain of the industry, thus creating an upgraded version of the international exhibition.

Besides conference forums and new product release conferences held in the main venue and sub-venues, the GILF will carry out an series of online lectures on the lighting industry titled "Denggle on Line" jointly with Cali-light.com, which provide new ideas for industrial transformation and development through webcasts before the event and live broadcasts during the exhibition.
Optimization and Comprehensive Upgrading Measures Facilitate Innovative, Secure and Intimate Services
