Has the world’s largest robotics and AI conference reached a breaking point? The number of domestic robotics companies has fallen below 50, as reported on May 5, 2026, at 11:04 AM.
The robotics and AI industry has faced unprecedented challenges, with the domestic robotics sector struggling to keep pace. This year’s conference marks a significant turning point, with a focus on “Physical AI,” an emerging field in artificial intelligence.
The conference aims to bridge the gap between traditional manufacturing industries and the latest technological advancements in robotics. Approximately 50 countries and around 2,900 companies are expected to participate, with nearly 110,000 attendees anticipated.
This year’s conference theme is “Exploring Future Business with Technology,” emphasizing the importance of AI and robotics in shaping the future of industries. The participation of domestic robotics companies has seen a drastic decline compared to previous years, with only 11 companies attending this year’s event, a stark contrast to 50 companies at last year’s conference.
Despite China’s leading role in global robotics, the number of participating companies continues to dwindle. The upcoming 2025 conference is projected to attract about 900 more companies from China, representing a significant increase compared to this year’s 2900 participants.
In terms of scale, the conference will showcase various advanced technologies, including humanoid robots, autonomous vehicles, and AI-driven manufacturing systems. The exhibition will feature innovations from key players in the industry, highlighting the integration of AI in robotics.
As challenges mount, the industry must adapt to evolving market demands and technological trends. The conference serves as a platform for discussion and collaboration among industry leaders, researchers, and entrepreneurs, focusing on overcoming obstacles and fostering growth.
In conclusion, while the current landscape presents challenges, the potential for innovation and development in the robotics and AI sector remains strong. The conference aims to inspire and promote advancements in this rapidly evolving field.
