China’s Humanoid Robot Development Strategy and Future Trends
[Past] Government-Led Designation of Future Industries
In November 2013, China selected humanoid robots as the primary core future industry designated by the state.
The nation began to intensively support the robot industry, which combines advanced technologies such as AI, semiconductors, and batteries.
Similar to the electric vehicle development approach, generous support was provided to thousands of startups.
From this point, the government aimed at technology transfer and systematic development.
[Process] Technology Convergence and Startup Ecosystem Formation
Systematic policies were promoted to integrate AI, semiconductor, and battery technologies into humanoid robots.
Over 2,000 startups tested their technological capabilities and creativity under government support.
Through a selection process, companies with excellent core technologies, such as brake technology, were consolidated through mergers and acquisitions.
In this process, technological innovation and economic revitalization were achieved simultaneously.
[Present] Technology Concentration through 2,000+ Startups and M&A
Although there are over 2,000 startups, not all need to succeed.
The government is supporting companies with superior technologies, mirroring the approach of fostering the top 15 electric vehicle companies.
Companies with technology are merging into or being acquired by other companies, concentrating technological capabilities.
As a result, they are contributing to technological innovation and economic development in line with market trends.
[Future Prospects] Goal to Develop 7 Global Leading Humanoid Companies
With the advanced technologies accumulated to date gradually converging and reorganizing, the Chinese government
aims to create seven global leading humanoid companies in the future.
This process focuses on maximizing the synergy effect through optimal combination of technologies and M&A.
It is expected to promote continuous growth while responding to changes in future industries, the economy, and the global market.
< Summary >
Since 2013, China has designated humanoid robots as a future industry and fostered over 2,000 startups through the integration of advanced technologies such as AI, semiconductors, and batteries.
The government is applying a successful electric vehicle development model to select outstanding companies and concentrate technological capabilities through mergers and acquisitions,
aiming to rapidly grow seven global leading companies.
This policy focuses on key economic keywords such as the economy, global competitiveness, future industries, technological innovation, and market trends,
demonstrating China's long-term growth strategy.
