TECH VISITS

Meet the teams.
Explore the technology.

Focused visits to companies along the robotics value chain, shaped around your application and technical goals.

Meet engineers, see product demonstrations and discuss what it would take to bring a technology into your project. We help shape the company shortlist and visit agenda around the questions you need answered.

Who is this for?

Industrial users

Discuss task requirements, operating conditions and deployment feasibility.

Robot developers & integrators

Explore platforms, components and software for your next system.

Sourcing & business teams

Understand supplier capabilities and discuss commercial cooperation.

Research & innovation teams

Meet technical teams and shape your next Proof of Concept.

What would you like to explore?

Choose a technical focus. We shape the discussion around your application.

Robot systems

Task suitability, payload, mobility, autonomy and deployment requirements.

Joints & actuators

Torque, speed, thermal performance, feedback and mechanical integration.

Robot arms

Reach, repeatability, control interfaces and integration into your workflow.

Sensors & perception

Range, accuracy, operating conditions and sensor integration.

Grippers & dexterous hands

Grasping tasks, dexterity, force control and object handling.

Robotics software & AI

SDKs, ROS compatibility, simulation, perception and deployment workflows.

Turn a demonstration into a technical decision.

Bring your application and requirements. We prepare the questions with you, so every visit ends with answers you can use.

  1. What does the product achieve today – under conditions close to your application?

  2. Which interfaces, integration work and adaptations would your system need?

  3. Which test data, certifications or documentation are still missing?

  4. What is the path to samples, a proof of concept or a pilot – and on what timeline?

Questions are prepared for each company and prioritised against your project goals.

Before, during and after your visit.

A clear agenda helps make the most of the time with each technical team.

03 / AFTER

Clarify next steps

Bring findings together and identify follow-up actions, such as documentation requests, sample evaluation or a pilot discussion.

02 / DURING

Focus the exchange

Meet the teams, discuss product fit and integration needs, and record key answers and open questions.

01 / BEFORE

Define the scope

Clarify your application, shortlist relevant companies and prepare questions, requested demonstrations and a meeting agenda.

What you can take forward

Meeting notes, comparison summaries and further coordination can be included in the agreed scope.

A practical action plan

Define proposed next steps, contacts and responsibilities.

Questions and evidence to follow up

Identify the technical gaps, missing information and tests still needed.

A clearer view of product fit

Compare capabilities against the requirements that matter to your project.

EXAMPLE PROGRAMME · FOR ILLUSTRATION ONLY

From online shortlist to a joint POC plan – in five days.

How a programme could look for a European system integrator preparing a proof of concept. Suppliers are compared and selected online beforehand; on site, three days of visits in and around Zhangjiang Robot Valley are followed by two days of workshops.

CLIENT (EXAMPLE)
European system integrator
GOAL
Validate the selected components and agree on POC plan and work split
WHERE
Zhangjiang Robot Valley, Shanghai & nearby
FORMAT
5 days · 4 supplier visits · 2 workshop days
BEFORE THE TRIP
Online comparison

Requirements, datasheets and video calls with candidate suppliers. One preferred supplier per component category is selected before travelling – so the time on site goes into validation, not discovery.
