Hanoi - Automation World Vietnam 2026 (AW Vietnam 2026) will take place from September 9 - 11 at the Vietnam Exposition Center (VEC) in Hanoi, bringing together hundreds of companies and showcasing technologies in automation, robotics, AI, smart logistics, and electronics manufacturing.



Automation World Vietnam 2026 (AW Vietnam 2026) will be held at Hall 1, VEC, Hanoi, with the aim of becoming a key platform connecting manufacturers, technology providers, buyers, and investors in the smart manufacturing sector.
According to the organizers, the event is expected to feature 145 companies and 328 booths. This will also be the first time AW Vietnam is held in Hanoi, following two previous editions in Binh Duong.



The exhibition will cover six main sectors: Smart Factory Automation, Smart Vision, Smart Robotics & Mobility, Smart Logistics, Electronics Manufacturing & Smart Components, and AI Connect. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore solutions such as industrial robots, cobots, AI, machine vision, AGVs/AMRs, smart warehouse systems, Industrial IoT, MES, ERP, and electronics manufacturing technologies.



Notably, AI and the technology startup ecosystem will be among the new highlights of AW Vietnam 2026. Through the dedicated AI Connect zone, 32 Korean companies will showcase solutions in AI, smart factories, robotics, industrial IoT, and manufacturing automation. The program will go beyond technology exhibitions by incorporating Business Matching and Technical Seminars, enabling buyers to identify suitable companies based on their needs and engage directly with exhibitors on products, technologies, and practical industrial applications.



In addition, AW Vietnam 2026 will introduce the Startup IR Program for the first time, providing Korean technology startups in smart manufacturing, robotics, AI, industrial IoT, and automation with opportunities to enter and explore the Vietnamese market. Following the semifinal round featuring 15 startups, 10 companies have been selected for the final round of “AW: Beyond Next”, which will take place from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. on September 10 at the AW Vietnam Main Stage. The startups will pitch their technologies and business models to investors and buyers in Vietnam, while also having opportunities for 1:1 meetings with investment firms such as Lotte Ventures and VinVentures, as well as other investors.

Through these programs, AW Vietnam 2026 aims not only to showcase advanced manufacturing technologies but also to build an ecosystem connecting manufacturers, technology providers, startups, and investors. AI Connect and Startup IR are expected to create additional opportunities for business cooperation, investment, Proof of Concept (PoC) projects, market development, and the practical application of advanced technologies in Vietnam’s manufacturing sector.



In addition to the exhibition area, AW Vietnam 2026 will feature a range of networking programs for businesses and visitors.
One of the highlights is the Exhibitor-Buyer Business Matching Program, which will facilitate pre-arranged one-on-one meetings between exhibitors and buyers throughout the three-day event. Visitors participating as Buyers will also have the opportunity to join the Lucky Draw Program, featuring a variety of attractive prizes, adding an extra experience alongside business networking and technology discovery at the exhibition.

The seminar and conference programs will also be key highlights of AW Vietnam 2026, featuring the participation of organizations, associations, and experts in manufacturing, automation, and technology. The programs will provide insights into technology trends, digital transformation, and smart manufacturing.

The organization of AW Vietnam in Hanoi this year also reflects the continued development of the Northern manufacturing cluster, which is home to a large number of electronics, automotive, and supporting-industry companies, alongside a growing ecosystem of logistics, R&D, and innovation.

AW Vietnam 2026 will take place from September 9 - 11 at Hall 1, VEC, Hanoi. The event is expected to serve as a meeting point where manufacturers can experience new technologies, explore solutions, connect with potential partners, and discover new business opportunities in the smart manufacturing sector.
