Let us continue to witness the growth and vitality of the electronics industry together."

electronica China 2025 kept its finger on the pulse of the industry and introduced new highlights in the following trending areas:

Humanoid Robots: One of the Most Promising Emerging Sectors

For the first time, a dedicated Humanoid Robot Exhibition Area was introduced, showcasing cutting-edge humanoid robot technologies and applications. The area presented a glimpse into the future potential of humanoid robots in everyday life and provided the industry with a valuable opportunity to drive technological innovation and commercialization. The "Humanoid Robot Innovation Forum" held alongside the exhibition focused on the latest technologies, collaboration across core components, and application scenarios in various markets. Industry peers were invited to discuss exploring the future development and adoption of humanoid robots across multiple sectors.

Generative AI Ushers in a New Era of Intelligent Computing

The integration of large AI models across diverse sectors has led to revolutionary new user experiences—enabled by the foundational support of various types of AI chips. At this critical juncture filled with both opportunities and challenges, a dedicated AI Pavilion was launched at the show. It featured themed exhibition zones focused on four key application areas—intelligent driving, cloud computing and data centers, consumer electronics, and medical industries—drawing significant attention from targeted audiences. The concurrent "2025 AI Technology Innovation Forum" brought together experts from academia and industry, senior researchers, and outstanding enterprise representatives to delve into critical topics such as next-generation AI chip architecture, data security and privacy protection, and AI-storage integration.

Reshaping the IoT Paradigm and Unlocking Key Future Tracks for the Industry

Focusing on IoT applications, electronica China 2025 centered around "cross-domain integration" and highlighted three cutting-edge directions: terminal computing power enhancement, hybrid network architecture, and green energy technologies. It offered a one-stop professional platform for visitors to capture the next wave of industry evolution.  The concurrent "International Embedded System Innovation Forum" and "IoT Consumer Electronics Technology and Application Forum" invited industry peers to share insights on topics such as industrial IoT technologies and ecosystem development, current trends and future outlooks of the global IoT consumer market, and the opportunities and challenges brought by generative AI to IoT consumers.
