CIGIE 2026 is the largest industrial gas supply chain expo. There are many conferences in it, and the Asia-Pacific Helium Conference 2026 is the premier one. It is taking place this week in Wuxi (15–17 April), bringing together over 500 participants in what is now the largest dedicated helium gathering in the Asia-Pacific region. The agenda is firmly aligned with current market dislocation, with sessions spanning global supply and pricing dynamics, liquefaction and cryogenic logistics, semiconductor and scientific end-use demand, and the growing strategic focus on helium-3 and other emerging applications. A key theme running through the conference is China’s push for helium localisation, reflecting both supply security concerns and accelerating domestic capability build-out.
