On April 22, as a key highlight of FAIR plus 2026—a major event dedicated to the entire robotics industry value chain—the "Siemens Xcelerator Robotics Ecosystem Collaboration Forum" was officially held. Jointly organized by Siemens Digital Industries (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. and the Shenzhen Robotics Association, the forum brought together enterprise representatives from across the upstream and downstream of the robotics supply chain, industry experts, and ecosystem partners. Attendees engaged in in-depth discussions centered on industry trends, platform enablement, practical application scenarios, and ecosystem collaboration, collectively exploring new opportunities and pathways for the high-quality development of the robotics industry. This exchange session centers on four key themes—"Foresight, Empowerment, Practical Application, and Connectivity"—aiming to foster more efficient capability synergy, scenario alignment, and collaborative innovation across the upstream and downstream segments of the robotics industry value chain through trend forecasting, platform introductions, case studies, and resource matchmaking. As an open digital business platform, Siemens Xcelerator leverages this event to empower enterprises within the robotics ecosystem with its platform capabilities, thereby accelerating the realization of value from innovation within the robotics industry.
On April 23, during the FAIR plus 2026 Robotics Full-Industry-Chain Conference (hereinafter referred to as "FAIR plus 2026"), UBTECH Robotics successfully hosted a developer forum themed "Competing in Embodied Humanoids: Energizing the Developer Ecosystem." Over 200 top experts, scholars, and industry leaders from the field of embodied intelligence gathered to engage in in-depth discussions on key topics such as core technology R&D, mass production at scale, and ecosystem collaboration. As a major highlight of this forum, UBTECH Robotics officially launched "Thinker Cosmos"—an exclusive community dedicated to developers. This platform aggregates the latest open-source achievements and technical expertise from UBTECH’s open-source ecosystem, establishing a one-stop open platform centered on the core stages of embodied AI R&D—encompassing resource sharing, algorithm development, practical application, and technical exchange.
On April 13, Yanfeng International and Galaxy Universal Robotics officially established a strategic partnership. Centered on the deep integration of intelligent manufacturing and embodied AI, this collaboration entails comprehensive coordination focused on meeting the requirements for large-scale deployment within industrial settings. Leveraging Galaxy Universal’s embodied AI foundation model, "Galaxy Starbrain," and its data infrastructure, "Galaxy Starworks," as core pillars—and integrating Yanfeng’s industrial capabilities in manufacturing systems, quality control, and global operations—the two parties aim to propel embodied AI robots into a new era, transitioning from mere "automated execution" to "autonomous decision-making and flexible operations." This strategic cooperation agreement was jointly signed by Zang Chungao, General Manager of Yanfeng International, and Yao Tengzhou, Co-founder of Galaxy General Robotics. SAIC Capital, representing the industrial capital driving this collaboration, attended and witnessed the signing ceremony. Wu Heng—General Manager of SAIC Group’s Financial Services Division and General Manager of SAIC Capital—along with Wang He, Founder and CTO of Galaxy General Robotics, and Cang Yu, Vice President of Galaxy General Robotics, were all present at the venue to participate in the signing.
On April 15, the Leju Robotics AI Industry Supply-Demand Matching Conference for Wujiang District was successfully held. Representatives from 36 key enterprises gathered at the venue, bringing with them specific industry pain points and requirements for intelligent solutions. The event aimed to establish an efficient platform for government-enterprise dialogue, supply-demand collaboration, and practical scenario implementation, thereby facilitating a precise alignment between technological supply and industrial demand—a milestone marking the commencement of large-scale industry application. During the remarks segment, Chen Qi, Vice District Mayor of the Wujiang District People's Government, commended Leju for its achievements as a benchmark enterprise in the regional AI sector. He encouraged Leju to firmly root itself in Wujiang and to focus on key industries—such as equipment manufacturing—to create exemplary application cases, while also expressing the hope that local enterprises would engage in regular exchanges with Leju to seize the early opportunities presented by intelligent transformation.
