Li Qiang said that at present, Jiangsu is accelerating the cultivation of the embodied intelligent robot industry and focusing on building a national robot industry innovation development and integrated application highland. We sincerely ask the experts and scholars present to continue to strengthen their support and concern for Jiangsu, and provide guidance in key technology research, innovation platform construction, industrial ecology creation, and major event empowerment. We hope that enterprises will seize the development opportunities of embodied intelligent robots, continue to invest in Jiangsu, and deepen their roots in Jiangsu. We look forward to Changzhou further expanding the development advantages of embodied intelligent robots industry, seizing the first opportunity and taking the initiative in future industrial development.

Pian Fei pointed out that the new round of global scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation is developing in depth, and the innovation of the robot industry is intensive and active. We must seize strategic opportunities, promote the deep integration of scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation, deepen the "robot +" application action, build a large, medium and small enterprise integration development ecology, and provide strong support for promoting new industrialization and creating a better life. The center will continue to strengthen exchanges and cooperation with Jiangsu Province, Changzhou City, and a large number of enterprises and institutions to jointly promote the high-quality development of the robot industry.

In recent years, Changzhou has made breakthrough developments in the field of robot industry and intelligent manufacturing, forming a complete ecological chain covering core components, body manufacturing, system integration and innovative applications. The city's robot industry has produced 5 national single champion enterprises, 23 specialized "little giant" enterprises, and 104 industrial enterprises above the designated size, with an industrial scale exceeding 30 billion yuan.

During the event, Li Hao, member of the district committee, deputy secretary of the Party Working Committee of Wujin National High-tech Zone, and director of the Management Committee, introduced Changzhou's robot industry. Changzhou Embodied Intelligent Robot Science and Technology Innovation Center was officially launched. The center is located in Wujin High-tech Industrial Research Institute Science and Technology Industrial Park. It will focus on providing special policy guarantees around major platform construction, product promotion and application, and guidance of science and technology innovation funds, providing more application scenarios for the embodied intelligent industry, and forming an industrial pattern of coordinated development of upstream and downstream. 

At the scene, 21 key projects in the field of robots were signed, covering multiple dimensions such as technology research and development, results transformation, and scenario application, with a total investment of nearly 6 billion yuan. Among them, 10 projects, including the research and development and production base of key components of humanoid robots, the research and development of Ruierte six-dimensional force sensors, and the intelligent manufacturing equipment of Dierbog industrial robots, were signed and settled in Wujin National High-tech Zone, which will help the robot industry in the park to flourish. The "Guide to 'Intelligent Transformation, Digital Transformation and Networking' of Robot Reducers in Jiangsu Province" was also released on site, aiming to solve the development bottleneck of robot reducers, a core component, and provide a "technical roadmap" and "implementation methodology" for the high-quality development of the province's robot industry.

During the event, Zhang Xiangmu, deputy director of the National Intelligent Manufacturing Expert Committee, Zhang Zhiqi, chairman of Changzhou Weiyi Intelligent Manufacturing Technology Co., Ltd., and Xu Xiong, chief technology officer of Jieka Robot Co., Ltd., and other industry experts and corporate representatives also shared their views on topics such as industrial AI empowering intelligent manufacturing, accelerating flexible automation upgrades, and building a robot industry development ecosystem.

City leaders Xu Jun and Zhu Zhengqing, Zhou Chengtao, secretary general of the municipal government, Yun Qicheng, Li Hao, and Ye Qing, district leaders, and relevant leaders of the High-tech Zone attended the event.
