The New-Tech Exhibition 2026, Israel’s international trade show for the hi-tech and electronics sector, ran June 30–July 1 at the Expo Tel Aviv fairgrounds. The show paired its usual exhibition floor with four parallel conference tracks, each running a full day of back-to-back sessions in its own hall.

Hall C1 — Opto-Tech: The Annual Electro Optics Conference

Focused on photonics, quantum optics, and imaging. Sessions included organic photonic neuromorphic devices from the Holon Institute of Technology, mid-infrared SPAD imaging from Tel Aviv University’s Femto-Nano Laboratory, quantum computing and QKD research from Ben-Gurion University’s Center for Quantum Science and Technology, and SWIR-to-visible up-conversion for AR devices.

EuroCucina 2026 unfolds once again as a central part of Milan Design Week, bringing a concentrated look at how kitchen and domestic space design continues to evolve under the influence of technology, shifting lifestyles, and changing ideas about what “home” actually feels like. It takes place at Fiera Milano Rho in Milan, where large exhibition halls are reconfigured into carefully staged environments that blur the line between showroom, installation, and speculative living space. The focus is not just on kitchens as isolated rooms, but on how they connect to the broader architecture of daily life, often dissolving into open-plan living concepts or modular environments that can be reconfigured with surprising flexibility.
