Chinese IT giants scheduled to attend the festival include Huawei, Haier, Legend, TCL and China Telecom.

Aside from an exhibition of international digital information technology and products, major activities of the festival will include a forum on digitization, an exchange meeting for personnel specialized in digital information and electronic technologies.
