Organised by the National Agency for Science and Technology Information under the Ministry of Science and Technology, the function is due to run until April 4 at the Sai Gon Exhibition and Convention Centre (SECC).
First held in 2009, the biennial event brings together leading experts in the laboratory technology, analysis, and biotechnology industry in Southeast Asia.
The highlights of the 2025 edition will be a start-up area dedicated to new businesses which will allow them to introduce their advanced solutions to global customers at a reasonable cost.
The exhibition will see the presence of diverse international pavilions from Singapore, Germany, China, Malaysia, and the UK, providing the latest advances from leading laboratory technology centres globally.
The three-day exhibition is expected to welcome about 6,000 visitors next year, helping them to access lab solutions for various industries such as food, public health, chemicals, and environmental protection.
The product range on display covers instrumental analysis, measuring and testing, quality control, lab technology, life sciences, biotechnology and diagnostics.
The 2023 exhibition drew 141 exhibitors, and more than 5,273 visitors, up 27% from 2019. The exhibition resumed in 2023 after a COVID-19 inflicted hiatus.
