About China Association of Metros
Geographic reach: China, Beijing, Nanjing, Qingdao, Guangzhou, International exhibitor and visitor participation
China Association of Metros (CAMET) is the Chinese industry association behind MetroTrans, a professional exhibition and conference platform focused on urban rail transit. The organizer’s flagship event traces its origins to 2015 and, according to the official MetroTrans website, had reached nine editions over 11 years by 2026.
MetroTrans combines product exhibition with technical exchange and executive-level programming, including rail-transit innovation sessions and an urban rail transit owners’ leadership roundtable. Its scope spans the systems, equipment, infrastructure, operations, technology and services used by metro and broader urban rail networks.
The association’s role is to convene transit operators, suppliers, technology companies, researchers, government stakeholders and industry specialists, while its appointed exhibition operator manages commercial participation and visitor services. The 2026 edition is scheduled for November 9–11 at the China Import and Export Fair Complex in Guangzhou, with Guangzhou Metro Group as special co-organizer and Beijing Sino Urban Railway Expo Co., Ltd. as the operating organizer.
Earlier editions were held in Beijing, Nanjing and Qingdao, indicating a China-wide event footprint rather than a single-city show. Official event materials identify CAMET as the host and describe MetroTrans as a recognized urban rail transit exhibition supported by relevant Chinese government bodies.
For exhibitors, the platform offers access to Chinese metro and urban rail stakeholders, supplier networking, product demonstrations, technical forums and business matchmaking. Publicly available materials document one recurring flagship exhibition series; the association may conduct additional conferences, committee activities and sector programs that are not separately catalogued as trade shows in the directory.
