Beijing is making headlines again! The city is set to unveil the world's first 4S store dedicated to embodied AI robots. Inspired by traditional auto 4S models (sales, service, spare parts and surveys), this futuristic hub in Yizhuang redefines how we engage with advanced robotics.
Located in a buzzing robotics industrial park in southern Beijing, the new store will offer hands-on experiences with interactive, scenario-based demos. Attendees at the 2025 World Robot Conference (August 8-12) can look forward to immersive interactions with these cutting-edge machines 🤖.
With a nationwide rapid-response parts supply network and a professional support team, the facility already has over 100 supply chain enterprises expressing interest, including 30 companies specializing in humanoid robots. Leading firms such as the Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center, UBTECH and Galaxea have signed cooperation agreements to be among the first to collaborate.
Liang Liang, deputy director of Yizhuang's administrative committee, highlighted the milestone as a major step in shaping a vibrant robotics ecosystem in the area. Yizhuang, home to over 300 robotics and smart manufacturing enterprises and the site of the world’s first humanoid robot half-marathon—where Tiangong Ultra clinched first place—continues to grow as a global robotics hub 🚀.
This breakthrough initiative isn't just about robot sales and services; it's about sparking innovation and providing a dynamic, interactive experience that brings the future of robotics to life.
