More than 560 cutting-edge scientific and technological achievements and products were showcased at the permanent exhibition of the Zhongguancun Exhibition Center during the 2026 Zhongguancun Forum (ZGC Forum) Annual Conference.
The intelligence zone enjoyed the greatest popularity. The zone showcased robots performing various real-world applications, from sorting goods to sewing needles.
"We installed more than 20 motors in the robot's hand, and each motor must be fast enough, powerful enough, and stable enough," said exhibitor Zhang Yanbai.
Technical solutions in frontier fields, such as automatic implantation of invasive brain-computer interface surgeries, also attracted flocks of visitors.
The exhibition also showcased technological achievements and the latest applications in fields such as intelligent manufacturing and commercial aerospace.
In addition, a special zone for the joint development of new productivity in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region was set up, where representatives from the three regions focused on showcasing their projects, communicating with upstream and downstream enterprises, universities, research institutes, and related service providers to strengthen collaborative innovation and industrial cooperation.
The forum, running in Beijing from Wednesday to Sunday, is focused on the theme of "Full Integration Between Technological and Industrial Innovation."
Since its founding in 2007, the forum has become a major international event for advancing science and technology innovation.

The data shows that China's social logistics volume reached 58.6 trillion yuan (around 8.5 trillion U.S. dollars) from January to February, up 6.7 percent year on year at comparable prices, marking a notable recovery.
In terms of structure, domestic production and consumption logistics improved in tandem with international import logistics demand, with growth accelerating across all sectors compared to the same period last year.
Industrial products logistics volume grew 6.3 percent year on year in the first two months, contributing over 80 percent to the overall growth of social logistics volume, while high-end equipment manufacturing sectors, including computers, communications and other electronic equipment, as well as railway, shipbuilding and aerospace, all posted growth rates exceeding 10 percent.
"A notable rebound in logistics demand was observed, along with continued structural improvements. The foundation for a favorable start to logistics operations is being further strengthened," said He Hui, vice president of the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing.
In addition, the total logistics volume for corporate and household goods grew by 9.4 percent year on year in the first two months of the year, as new business forms such as instant-delivery online retail flourished, effectively driving robust growth in new types of consumption logistics demand.
