Beijing just rolled out the red carpet for artificial intelligence in a way that’s hard to ignore. The fourth China International Supply Chain Expo, which opened on June 22 and runs through June 26 at the China International Exhibition Center in Shunyi, features a first-of-its-kind dedicated AI exhibition zone. Nvidia, Intel, Qualcomm, and Alibaba are among the headliners.
The AI zone covers the full stack, from data collection and raw computing power all the way through to real-world applications and turnkey solutions.
What’s actually on display
The expo spans six core supply chain sectors: Digital Technology, Advanced Manufacturing, Smart Vehicles, Clean Energy, Healthy Living, and Green Agriculture. A dedicated Supply Chain Services area rounds out the lineup.
Live demonstrations of embodied AI, meaning robots that physically interact with their environment, are drawing crowds. Use cases span manufacturing floors to automotive assembly lines.
