Hong Kong, Komite.id – 13 April 2026 ,InnoEX  jointly organised by the Innovation, Technology and Industry Bureau (ITIB) of the HKSAR Government and the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), officially opens today. Under the theme “Innovate • Automate • Elevate”, the exhibition is held alongside the HKTDC’s Hong Kong Electronics Fair (Spring Edition) (EFSE) 2026 for four consecutive days at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HK CEC). The two flagship technology fairs bring together leading global IT solutions, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Robotics technologies and cutting-edge electronic products. A series of forums, seminars, business-matching sessions, and networking events will also be held, aligning with the National 15th Five-Year Plan and the IT development directions outlined in the Hong Kong Government’s latest Budget. The fairs attract technology enterprises, start-ups and buyers from around the world to explore collaboration and business opportunities.

Jenny Koo, Deputy Executive Director of the HKTDC, said: “The HKTDC is committed to building world-class business platforms that foster cross-regional, cross-industry and cross-sector collaboration, highlighting Hong Kong’s international and innovation strengths. This year, InnoEX 2026 and the EFSE 2026 bring together over 2,800 exhibitors from 27 countries and regions, showcasing AI+ driven innovations and advanced electronic products. Robotics technology is a major highlight. We have newly upgrade & launch the ‘RoboPark’ which brings together technology companies from Hong Kong, the Chinese Mainland and overseas to showcase over 100 AI robots across diverse application scenarios from 18 in HKEF Autumn Edition 2025. This facilitates cross-regional exchange, industrial collaboration and innovative applications, accelerating Hong Kong’s development as an international I&T hub and aligning with opportunities under the National 15th Five-Year Plan.”

RoboPark debuts at both fairs

The newly launched “RoboPark” spans both InnoEX and EFSE at 3rd Floor of HKCEC and features a strong line-up of exhibitors. Four of the world’s top five best-selling humanoid robot manufacturers are participating, including AgiBot, Unitree (one of “Hangzhou’s Six Little Dragons”), UBTECH and EngineAI (both among “Shenzhen’s Eight Great Guardians of Embodied Intelligence”). Four additional members of the “Shenzhen’s Eight Great Guardians of Embodied Intelligence”, including AI² Robotics, LimX Dynamics, PaXini and Digit Robotics, are also exhibiting. Unitree (Booth: 3CON-E01) will present the first launch outside Chinese Mainland for its next-generation quadruped robot dog, Unitree A2, capable of running speed at up to 5 m/s and climbing to a height of up to 1 m. The robot is equipped with ultra-wide-angle LiDAR which enables real-time 3D perception and environmental recognition. Designed for commercial and industrial applications, the robot can withstand a 100 kg adult jumping on its back and can also operate stably across complex terrain like gravel.

RoboPark also features companies based in Hong Kong. Rice Robotics (Booth: 3CON-J07) presents autonomous robots designed to perform repetitive building and office operations, including delivery, cleaning, disinfection and patrol security. Powered by proprietary navigation technology and integrated with lifts and access control systems, these robots enable fully autonomous operations and are in wide adoption by enterprises in Japan such as SoftBank, 7-Eleven Japan and Mitsui Fudosan. International exhibitors from the United Kingdom, Israel, the Philippines and Singapore will also participate to showcase the latest robotics innovations. Some 40 events will be held in the zone, including application sharing sessions, live demonstrations and interactive showcases, to help Chinese Mainland enterprises expand globally while providing an exchange platform for both Hong Kong and overseas companies to explore collaboration opportunities in different markets.

Growing international participation at InnoEX features the latest technologies in AI+ and the low-altitude economy

This year’s InnoEX features over 550 exhibitors from 21 countries and regions, with first-time participation from Austria, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Kazakhstan, the Netherlands, the Philippines and the United States, reflecting strong global recognition of Hong Kong’s I&T platform. Chinese Mainland participation remains strong, with 18 delegations from 17 provinces and cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. The Director General of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), Dr. Gerd Müller, will also lead a delegation to attend, underscoring Hong Kong’s role in promoting global I&T collaboration and new industrialisation. The exhibition focuses on five key areas: AI+, Robotics, Low-altitude Economy, PropTech and RetailTech.

In AI+, the Digital Policy Office presents the “Smart Hong Kong Pavilion” under the theme “AI+ Hong Kong”, featuring innovative solutions from over 20 government departments and public organisations, as well as award-winning projects from local innovators and students. Highlights include the Water Supplies Department’s “Smart Inspection Robot Dog”, an AI-powered robot with multi-sensors for automatic patrol and water facilities monitoring. First time exhibitor Tencent Cloud (Booth: 3D-A23), Huawei showcases AI solutions including SuperApp and PalmAI, enabling enterprises to build their own mini-program ecosystems.

In robotics, Wildfaces, Lenovo and Intel (Booths: 3CON-J12 and 3D-A27) jointly present a patented real-time AI fault detection system using drones and WildAI software for anomaly detection in confined or hazardous environments, replacing high-risk and difficult manual inspection procedures.

The newly introduced “RoboPark” zone connects InnoEX and the EFSE, showcasing robots across more than 100 application scenarios.
