On March 3rd, the Shenzhen Science and Technology Innovation Bureau released the "Action Plan for Innovation and Industrial Development of Embodied Intelligent Robot Technology in Shenzhen (2025-2027)", which proposes that by 2027, there will be more than 1200 related enterprises in the embodied intelligent robot industry cluster. On February 28th, the Beijing Municipal Commission of Science and Technology, Zhongguancun Science and Technology Park Management Committee, and other departments released the "Action Plan for Innovation and Industrial Cultivation of Intelligent Technology in Beijing (2025-2027)", which also proposed that by 2027, the original innovation capability should be significantly improved, with breakthroughs in no less than 100 key technologies around embodied brain models, embodied intelligent chips, and whole body motion control, and the output of no less than 10 internationally leading software and hardware products. The upstream and downstream industrial chain of embodied intelligence should be basically localized. Embodied intelligence is the integration of artificial intelligence into physical entities such as robots, endowing them with the ability to perceive, learn, and dynamically interact with the environment like humans. Zhu Keli, Executive Director of the China Information Association and Founding President of the National Research Institute for New Economy, stated in an interview with reporters that from the above action plan, Shenzhen focuses on innovation and development of robot technology itself, such as tackling core components, AI chips, etc; Beijing places greater emphasis on the combination of technological innovation and industrial cultivation. Both emphasize policy support and the construction of public service platforms, but the specific paths and focuses are different. As a combination of the two cutting-edge technologies of artificial intelligence and robotics, embodied intelligence is an important component of developing new quality productivity. The reporter found that currently, Guangdong, Shandong, Sichuan, Henan, Shanxi, Chongqing and other places have clearly included "embodied intelligence" in their respective 2025 Government Work Reports and listed it as one of the key tasks to be emphasized in 2025. Currently, embodied intelligence is in a rapid development stage, with continuous technological breakthroughs and increasingly diverse application scenarios. In the future, each region needs to further clarify its own positioning and form a complementary and collaborative development pattern In Zhu Keli's view, embodied intelligence, as a representative of cutting-edge technology, is expected to become a new engine for promoting economic and social development. Wu Qi, a senior researcher at Pangu Think Tank, believes that there are two key points for the development of embodied intelligence: first, to lead by technological innovation and promote the integration of technological innovation and industrial innovation; Secondly, driven by ecological openness, we will promote the coordinated development of the industrial chain and create a specific intelligent industrial cluster. With the rapid iteration of large models, gradual localization of key equipment, and continuous reduction of supply chain costs, the commercialization process of embodied intelligence is accelerating, and it is expected that the market size will reach trillions of yuan. To accelerate the construction of an innovative ecosystem for embodied intelligent robots, the supply of funds is particularly important. To this end, Beijing has established a government investment fund with a total scale of 100 billion yuan and a duration of 15 years, focusing on supporting future industries such as artificial intelligence and robotics, and actively guiding social capital to invest in key common technology research and industrialization projects. Shenzhen also announced the establishment of a 10 billion yuan artificial intelligence and robotics industry fund, focusing on software, hardware, embodied intelligence and other directions of artificial intelligence, investing in a group of high growth enterprises, and using the billion yuan fund to solve financing difficulties. The reporter learned from the Beijing Municipal Development and Reform Commission that in order to actively seize the key period of embodied intelligent technology innovation and industrial development, the Beijing Municipal Development and Reform Commission, in combination with the city's fixed assets investment, focuses on key common technical bottlenecks, lack of high-quality data sets, inadequate release of application scenarios and other industrial problems, continues to increase the policy coverage and support for key links of embodied intelligent development, and is developing special support measures to support embodied intelligent technology innovation, data breakthrough, and application demonstration through the city's fixed assets investment. The maximum amount of support for a single project can reach 100 million yuan. (New Society)
