European manufacturing continues to push automation and industrial electronics into core production systems. Tech Industry 2026 takes place from 26 to 28 November in Riga at the Riga International Exhibition Centre and focuses on electrical engineering, electronics, automation and machinery manufacturing.
Dates and venue for Tech Industry 2026
The show runs from 26 to 28 November at the Riga International Exhibition Centre. The event presents manufacturers of equipment, automation suppliers and component specialists targeting industrial production environments.
Types of companies attending
Materials associated with the fair highlight exhibitors across metalworking, CNC machining, laser cutting, process automation, electrical components and measurement and control systems. That profile positions the exhibition as a practical marketplace for plant managers, purchasing teams and maintenance specialists.
Demonstrations and program elements
Program elements include live machinery demonstrations and technical showcases. Past presentations featured virtual reality training simulators, laser cutting and welding demonstrations, CNC machine demos and machine vision solutions. The format emphasizes hands-on equipment viewing and technical validation on the spot.
Tactical advice for B2B prospecting in Riga
- Prioritize three production issues to validate during the visit: line automation, energy reduction or machining accuracy.
- Use the official site to identify exhibitors and request meetings with engineers or sales contacts in advance.
- Bring technical documentation. Drawings, part specifications and process photos speed up technical assessments at stands.
- Focus on live demonstrations. Machine trials are the fastest filter to rule out solutions that do not meet required throughput or tolerances.
Commercial signals to track on the floor
Look for vendors that combine control, connectivity and integration services. Systems offering remote diagnostics, modular robotization and machine vision tend to be deployable in stages. Also consider commercial terms that include pilot tests or equipment rental if capital expenditure is a constraint.
