40 companies exhibit, a record high, as Xuhui's AI newcomers and "full-attendance veterans" appear together at the CIIE

The 9th China International Import Expo will be held from November 5 to 10 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai). As of now, 40 companies from Xuhui District are participating in the expo, a record high in the number of exhibitors. Reporters noted that, judging from the structure of Xuhui's participating companies, there are both "full-attendance" exhibitors who have kept their appointments for nine consecutive years and AI rising stars represented by "MoSu Space," which will make their first group appearance in the AI Experience Zone of the CIIE. Xuhui's sci-tech innovation companies will use the CIIE platform to turn laboratory technologies into "visible and usable" products, letting the world see the surging momentum of Shanghai's sci-tech innovation enterprises. LEGO AI companies bring their signature strengths as a group The eight companies in MoSu Space's group exhibition this time cover multiple links from AI chips, 3D generative models, and smart hardware to industry agents, presenting in a panoramic way the implementation of "AI+" in scenarios such as smart manufacturing, healthcare, finance, and consumer goods, and showcasing the innovative vitality of Xuhui's AI industry cluster. At the chip and computing power level, Shanghai Lingchuan Yuheng Technology Co., Ltd. will bring the SL200 chip series, integrating capabilities such as video encoding, image processing, AI inference, and content-adaptive encoding. The "AIGV Smart Shadow Pavilion" will also be exhibited on site; after visitors take photos, exclusive creative images can be generated within "seconds" and printed on site, allowing them to experience the full chain of AI imaging from generation and processing to delivery and distribution. MoSu Third Space Xijian Technology originated from the Center for Brain-Inspired Computing Research at Tsinghua University. The team has developed the world's first brain-inspired complementary vision chip, "Tianmou Chip," and built a full-stack technology system integrating "chip-protocol-large model" with it at the core. At the CIIE site, the company will set up a demonstration system with physical chip wafers, integrated perception modules, and real-time comparison between traditional cameras and Tianmou Chip for visitors to experience. In the direction of physical 3D and industrial design, Bit Infinite's self-developed Arko series foundation models have covered fields such as text generation, image generation, point cloud and mesh generation. Pinlan Smart Manufacturing's self-developed "Plex1.0 AI Physical Engineer Agent" platform includes elements such as industrial large models, five types of business agents, image recognition algorithms, reinforcement learning image generation algorithms, and a geometry engine. All of the above systems will be displayed at the CIIE site. In consumer and health scenarios, Fengqi Technology's key AI smart earphones and the "Jarvis Personal Secretary" App, through long-term memory, user knowledge graphs, and intent understanding capabilities, can enable AI to gradually understand users' relationships, work matters, and preferences, creating a personal AI assistant that "understands you better the more you use it." Yanyu Technology will showcase its core product "LibTV" and the AI design agent "Lovart" at the CIIE site. Among them, LibTV, as a one-stop AI video creation platform, has achieved industrialized video production including scripts, storyboards, and finished films for advertising and short drama scenarios. Hunban Technology will exhibit the "Lingshao" scenario-adaptive robot inspection platform, demonstrating its intelligent perception, flexible expansion, and operation capabilities in complex environments. At present, this product has carried out scenario co-creation and application practices with partners such as Shanghai Customs and Ping An of China. "Full-attendance" exhibitors continue to innovate A group of "full-attendance" exhibitors participating in the CIIE for nine consecutive years have all expanded their booth scale this year and continue to bring global debuts and China premieres to the CIIE stage. 3M has set up four major exhibition areas at this year's CIIE, including automotive, electronics, safety, and manufacturing materials and automation, systematically demonstrating a diversified innovation layout centered on materials science. Among them, the company has specially created a concept car in the automotive exhibition area to showcase comprehensive solutions from in-car displays to battery sealing. Johnson & Johnson's Haishan II® modular laparoscopic surgical robot system (global debut) Johnson & Johnson, participating for nine consecutive years, has adopted "symbiosis" as its theme and this year brings its two major business segments, medical technology and innovative pharmaceuticals, to the CIIE, presenting more than 100 innovative products and solutions, including more than 10 global and China debuts and premieres. Among them, the "Haishan II modular laparoscopic surgical robot" system, which will have its global debut at the CIIE, is the country's first modular laparoscopic surgical robot system with "dual-doctor control + five arms." Zhou Mintao, president of Johnson & Johnson MedTech China, introduced that among the more than 1,000 innovative products Johnson & Johnson has displayed in total, many "CIIE debut" products have already left the exhibition hall and entered clinical use. "The true value of the CIIE is not only to make innovation visible, but also to bring cutting-edge results together with real needs." IKEA, whose CIIE booth is uniquely designed every year, has this year drawn design inspiration from "Cube" and created a 360-square-meter booth, where it will globally debut the "FÖSSTA" Year of the Sheep Chinese New Year series and the "SAXVALLEN" electric multi-seat sofa and other products. The cod hot dog, planned to be launched in January next year, will also appear at this year's CIIE. LEGO Group The LEGO Group has created an immersive creative space focused on adult consumers under the theme "Playfulness Never Sleeps," continuing the creative concept of "LEGO Flower Waves" from the LEGO flower show, with large-scale art installations arranged on site and a building and interaction experience area. It is reported that as a "full-attendance" exhibitor for nine consecutive years, the LEGO Group has cumulatively globally debuted 34 new products at the CIIE. Lesaffre will this year bring the innovative achievements of its seven major business units to the CIIE Food and Agricultural Products exhibition area. With "Fermentation, Exploring Infinite Possibilities" at the core, it will sign a strategic cooperation with the Chinese time-honored brand Guangzhou Restaurant on the baking theme day, and will also release products such as Lefendo durum wheat active premix flour and Angel high-activity semi-dry yeast. SGS-CSTC Standards Technical Services Co., Ltd. will globally debut its "Cybersecurity Matrix Solution" at this year's CIIE and sign strategic cooperation agreements with multiple companies including Genki Forest, Shixi, Sunshine Hydrogen Energy, and Lingjing Zhiyuan, covering diverse tracks such as new energy, intelligent connected vehicles, AI robots, food and beverages, and textiles. As global debuts and premieres are no longer merely one-way output from multinational companies, local enterprises and AI innovation forces will gain more opportunities to showcase on the same stage with global companies on the CIIE platform. Xuhui District stated that while ensuring support during the exhibition period, Xuhui will firmly seize the spillover effects of the CIIE, promote the transformation of more exhibitors into investors and more debut products into bestsellers, and continuously convert exhibition traffic into industrial increments and cooperation increments.
