Verified 2026-09-29 Asia/Shanghai from the official FiO site. CMS draft title was polluted as “Home | FIO” and CMS dates 2026-09-29 → 2026-09-30 matched only the Science + Industry Showcase window, not the full Technical Conference. Full official Technical Conference dates are 27 September – 1 October 2026; as of verification day the edition is still running (ends 1 October).
