2027 Shanghai International Humanoid Robot Exhibition (Yangtze River Delta Robot Expo)
2027 Shanghai Robotics Industry Expo
Time: April 23 - May 2, 2027 Venue: National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai)
Exhibition Introduction:
Currently, the artificial intelligence industry has bid farewell to the single track of traditional algorithm iteration. The practical application of embodied intelligence and physical AI technology is propelling humanoid robots from conceptual R&D and prototype testing into a new cycle of industrial implementation and commercial popularization. As a core benchmark for the intelligent equipment and AI industry in the Yangtze River Delta, we have deeply cultivated the integration of resources across the entire humanoid robot industry chain for many years. We precisely capture the development trends of domestic substitution, large-scale scenario implementation, and cross-industry technology integration. We hereby sincerely invite you to join us at this annual industry grand event.
To break down barriers between the upstream and downstream of the humanoid robot industry chain, and to link resources across all dimensions including technological R&D, core component production, complete machine manufacturing, scenario application, and market investment and financing, the 2027 Shanghai International Humanoid Robot Exhibition (Yangtze River Delta Robot Expo) is scheduled to grandly open in April 2027 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai). This exhibition leverages Shanghai's foundation in high-end intelligent manufacturing and the advantages of the Yangtze River Delta industrial cluster. It focuses on frontier technologies in embodied intelligence and the industrial implementation of humanoid robots, aiming to build a vertical professional exhibition in China that is highly professional, practical, and influential.
Compared to similar comprehensive intelligent exhibitions in the industry, this exhibition is characterized by vertical focus, deep cultivation of the entire chain, and an implementation-oriented approach. It completely abandons the broad display forms of "pan-AI" and "pan-intelligence." It is the only specialized industrial exhibition in the Yangtze River Delta region with humanoid robots as the core and embodied intelligence technology as the kernel. It precisely avoids the common industry problems of "emphasizing display over implementation, and concepts over mass production."
The 2027 Shanghai International Humanoid Robot Exhibition (Yangtze River Delta Robot Expo) features a comprehensively upgraded and refined exhibition area planning. It is subdivided into six special zones: the Humanoid Robot Complete Machine Zone, the Embodied Intelligence Algorithm & AI Large Model Zone, the Core Components Zone, the Perception & Motion Control Zone, the Scenario Application Zone, and the Scientific Research Innovation Achievement Zone. This achieves precise zoning of industrial segments and efficient matching of supply and demand. The exhibits cover core categories across the entire industry chain. They include not only complete machine products such as general-purpose humanoid robots, industrial heavy-duty humanoid robots, lightweight service humanoid robots, and special operations humanoid robots, but also key core components and underlying technical solutions such as high-precision servo motors, harmonic reducers, intelligent joint modules, force control sensors, 3D visual perception modules, embedded control systems, embodied AI training frameworks, and edge deployment algorithms. Additionally, it gathers complete landing solutions in fields such as intelligent manufacturing, commercial services, home health and elderly care, security and inspection, education and research, and special emergency response. From underlying technology and core hardware to complete equipment and scenario applications, it fully connects the upper, middle, and lower reaches of the humanoid robot industry, displaying the industry's iterative achievements from laboratory prototypes and engineering samples to mass-produced models and commercially launched products. The exhibition also features a special zone for new product launches and technology premieres, providing an exclusive stage for enterprises' new iterative products for 2027, unpublished frontier technologies, and new mass production processes. This helps enterprises seize the discourse power of industry premieres and establish an annual technical benchmark for the industry.
To further consolidate the industrial value of the exhibition and build a "Exhibition + Forum + Docking + Implementation" four-dimensional industrial service system, a number of high-specification and highly effective special industrial activities will be held intensively during the same period. These activities will run through multiple dimensions including technical exchange, policy interpretation, supply-demand docking, investment and financing empowerment, and talent incubation. Core activities include the 2027 Yangtze River Delta Embodied Intelligence Industry Summit Forum, the National Humanoid Robot Technology Innovation Achievement Release Conference, the Mass Production Process & Supply Chain Attack Seminar, the Government-Enterprise Industrial Policy Docking Meeting, the Upstream and Downstream Precise Supply-Demand Matching Session, the Humanoid Robot Innovation and Entrepreneurship Roadshow, and the Investment and Financing Closed-Door Docking Meeting. One-on-one appointment negotiations will be conducted to thoroughly solve industry pain points such as asymmetric supply-demand information and low docking efficiency, building a high-quality, high-conversion resource docking and technology empowerment platform for participating colleagues.
2027 is a critical year for humanoid robots to move from pilot demonstrations to large-scale mass production and market popularization. Rooted in Shanghai, radiating to the Yangtze River Delta, and facing the whole country, this exhibition deeply relies on the Yangtze River Delta's global leading high-end intelligent manufacturing industrial cluster, complete supply chain supporting system, and huge terminal application market. It aims to create a highly empowering industry implementation-oriented grand event, helping the entire industry seize the golden opportunity of humanoid robot industrialization and occupy the core track of the new round of AI industrial change.
The 2027 Shanghai International Humanoid Robot Exhibition (Yangtze River Delta Robot Expo) sincerely invites robot enterprises, intelligent equipment manufacturers, scientific research institutes, investment and financing institutions, industry buyers, and colleagues to visit, exhibit, exchange, and cooperate. We look forward to gathering with you in Shanghai to explore the new boundaries of embodied intelligence technology, start a new journey of humanoid robot industrial development, and work together to empower the high-end, intelligent, and large-scale development of China's intelligent equipment industry!
