From AI to the All Electric Society: electronica 2026 explores the future of electronics
How can AI become more powerful and, at the same time, more energy-efficient? How is the electronics industry adapting to new cyber resilience requirements? And what is driving the All Electric Society forward? electronica 2026 aims to provide answers to these questions not only in the exhibition space spanning its 18 halls, but also through its extensive supporting programme. Taking place at Messe München in Munich, Germany, from 10 to 13 November, the global trade fair for electronics will facilitate knowledge exchange and networking through practice-oriented forums, the new special area edge lab LIVE!, start- up and career formats, and the electronica Automotive Conference. At the same time, SEMICON Europa will offer a comprehensive overview of the entire value chain of the semiconductor industry across two and a half halls.

electronica 2026 is almost fully booked. Together with SEMICON Europa, we expect around 3,500 exhibitors. This demonstrates the importance of the trade fair and the immense innovative strength of the industry,” says Caroline Pannier, exhibition director of electronica. With this breadth, electronica will once again cover the entire spectrum of the industry, making it unique worldwide, according to organisers. To help visitors navigate this diversity, the hall layout has been made even more coherent and clear. Also, the semiconductor area has been extended by an entire hall, now covering the halls B4-B5 and C2-C6.
Caroline Pannier adds: “At the same time, we want to offer our visitors more than just an overview of the latest products and solutions. That’s why there will once again be a very extensive supporting programme that imparts knowledge, provides new inspiration, and leaves plenty of room for professional exchange.”
The newly developed electronica Executive Event with CEO Roundtable will kick things off on the eve of the trade fair. This exclusive evening will bring together industry decision- makers to discuss strategic issues shaping the future.
Technologies for the All Electric Society
The motto of electronica 2026 is “Empowering the All Electric Society”.

The electronics industry provides the technological basis for this vision of the future and enables intelligent applications in energy supply, mobility, industrial automation, and buildings. Key points of the All Electric Society are sustainable energy sources, storage power plants and

technologies to smooth fluctuations in energy supply and the reduction of fossil fuels. Against this background, electronica has identified in discussions with industry representatives three focus topics: artificial intelligence, energy efficiency and cyber resilience. All three contribute to the
vision of an All Electric Society and are increasingly reflected in the trade fair’s supporting programme.
