Chongqing in the Chinese mainland just became the place to be for anyone curious about the AI-driven world of tomorrow! The World Smart Industry Expo 2025 opened its doors with the theme "Pooling together wisdom and strength," and trust us, the future looks bright—and smart! 🤖
Spread across 130,000 m² indoors and 40,000 m² of outdoor zones, the Expo gathers over 600 leading names from home and abroad to showcase the latest in:
- Intelligent connected NEVs (yep, AI-powered cars on the road 🚗)
- Digital cities that talk to you (and each other) 🌆
- Smart robots flexing their muscles 💪
- Low-altitude economy wonders (think delivery drones!) 🚁
- Next-gen smart homes that feel like sci-fi 🏠
Over 3,000 innovations are on display, and more than 100 industry standards and cutting-edge products will be unveiled. Plus, six high-energy competitions—like the 2025 RoboCup Asia-Pacific Chongqing Invitational Tournament—are putting smart industry pros to the test.
Deals are flying off the table: 298 major projects are set to be signed with a total value topping 200 billion yuan (about $28 billion)! 💸
And it’s not just a one-off event. The Chinese mainland recently rolled out its "AI Plus" initiative, aiming for smart systems in over 70% of sectors by 2027 and a fully AI-powered society by 2035. With more than 5,000 local AI enterprises and a market set to hit 700 billion yuan (around $98 billion) in 2025, the tech revolution is in full swing.
Whether you’re a tech junkie, a budding entrepreneur, or just love peeking into the future, the Smart Industry Expo 2025 is your ticket to the next decade’s coolest innovations! 🎟️✨
