It brings six cutting‑edge sectors together under one roof: AI,Digital Infrastructure, Future Mobility & Energy, Industry5.0, Life Science & Health, and Startup.
From cutting‑edge technologies to innovative applications, from startup teams to regional industrial clusters, a host of noteworthy tech‑innovation brands and innovators will be present at Hongqiao Tech Week. International and regional innovation resources including Portugal, Ireland, Türkiye, Republic of Korea, Sichuan and Hongqiao Tech will also make their joint on‑site appearance during the event.
*To be updated…
As a comprehensive tech festival geared toward cross‑industry real‑world implementation, Hongqiao Tech Week departs from conventional exhibition formats with an integrated layout combining themed stages and themed exhibition zones. Rather than simply viewing technologies from booths, you step into the very space where technologies take shape.
What would an AI idea turn into if it only had 48 hours to become a finished project?
Hongqiao Tech Week co‑hosts the Hackathon with Quetansuo. Bringing together over 200 global developers and more than 60 outstanding teams for an on‑site 48‑hour innovation sprint, participants compete for a RMB 100,000 prize pool across three tracks: AI Agent, AI + Global Expansion, and AI + Hardware. All submissions will be showcased at the festival fair. Witness finished projects, live presentations and the announcement of the champion in one immersive session.
Here, you can be a topic initiator or join any discussion that sparks your interest. Centered on makers, developers, entrepreneurs and startup communities, the Idea Chat Room shuns superficial business‑card‑swapping networking. Through lightweight free‑form talks, participants spark fresh perspectives and connect with potential partners, clients and investors.
A lineup of outstanding Shanghai‑based enterprises brought by Shanghai Science and Technology Entrepreneurship Center, our strategic science‑and‑technology partner, will be featured in the “Startup in Shanghai” exhibition zone. They will showcase advanced products, core technologies and typical applications. Roadshows and product launches will demonstrate the real‑world journey of Shanghai’s innovations, from technical breakthroughs to industrial implementation.
How can algorithms interpret rhythm? How do robots deliver stage‑worthy performances? The AI + Music Experience Zone brings technology out of screens and onto the physical stage. The event will also feature performances and interactive sessions by the bionic humanoid robot Elf‑Xuan. Fresh visions for music creation and future live performances are unfolding right here on‑site.
Technology is not merely displayed on exhibition booths; it also takes part in the on‑site operations of Hongqiao Tech Week. While exploring the show, you may randomly encounter robots making coffee and milk tea, playing musical instruments, delivering stage performances, and handling material deliveries across the venue… A delightful series of unexpected robot encounters awaits you on‑site.
