WUHU, China, Aug. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AiMOGA Robotics has crossed a major global milestone, surpassing 2,000 cumulative overseas deliveries with products and services now reaching more than 60 countries and regions. The company marked the achievement at a Global Delivery Ceremony held in Wuhu, Anhui, where robot arrays waving flags from around the world, a milestone lighting and a shipment dispatch underscored China's robotics shift from product export to large-scale, systematic global expansion grounded in real-world business scenarios.
Malaysia has emerged as a key destination in AiMOGA's global story. In 2025, the company first entered the automotive marketing service scenario there, taking the crucial "from 0 to 1" step in the overseas market — moving from prototype display to batch delivery and building a localized operation system. Across Malaysia, AiMOGA robots will serve showrooms and operations for Chery, OMODA&JAECOO, iCAUR and Lepas, bringing intelligent interaction experiences to local consumers. As part of this first wave of overseas deployments, dozens of AiMOGA units will operate across the mentioned Malaysian automotive showrooms, forming part of the broader 2,000-unit global footprint. From this base, the company has expanded into Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, Africa and Latin America, and has obtained international certifications including EU CE and US FCC.
As an important part of Chery's intelligent strategy, AiMOGA leverages nearly 30 years of Chery's industrial accumulation in global markets, sharing its R&D, manufacturing, supply chain, logistics, channel and service systems. "Going global is not just about product capability, but full-chain capability including R&D, manufacturing, supply chain, delivery, services and localized operations," said Zhang Guibing, President of Chery International and AiMOGA Robotics. "Only by truly integrating into the local market can long-term development be achieved."
AiMOGA applies its robots across automotive marketing, smart police services, medical guidance and public spaces. In the first half of this year, 110 units of AiMOGA Smart Traffic Police Robots were put into use in multiple cities in China, providing regular services in traffic command, order guidance and safety promotion. With Chinese robotics accelerating from product export toward capability export, the company is contributing Chinese wisdom and solutions to the global intelligent industry — from the globalization of the automotive industry to that of the robotics industry.

AiMOGA Robotics Crosses 2,000 Global Deliveries, with Robots to Serve Chery, OMODA&JAECOO, iCAUR and Lepas Showrooms across Key Destination Malaysia
In an extension of ongoing collaboration, IBM and Lockheed Martin plan to initiate research projects with select Swiss academic institutions.
The Swiss National Supercomputing Centre at ETH Zurich will host an IBM Quantum System Two, expanding access across Swiss institutions to fuel the country's quantum ecosystem, research and workforce education.
ZURICH, Sept. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- IBM (NYSE: IBM) and Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT), through an offset agreement with armasuisse, Switzerland's Federal Office for Defence Procurement, today established a hub for quantum innovation at ETH Zurich, a prominent public research university. The new hub plans to host the country's first IBM Quantum System Two at the Swiss National Supercomputing Center (CSCS) in Lugano.
IBM will operate the IBM Quantum System Two, which will be powered by an IBM Quantum Nighthawk, the company's most advanced processor. ETH Zurich will provide expertise, resources and technologies for Swiss industries, startups and academia, including access to the quantum computer. Its delivery is expected to catalyze the development of new algorithms, technical breakthroughs, and industrial use cases, as well as anchor initiatives to foster Switzerland's workforce and talent. The project also advances the ongoing strategic collaboration between Lockheed Martin and IBM, combining Lockheed Martin innovations in quantum sensing and additive manufacturing with IBM's expertise in quantum computing and AI.
"Switzerland is deservedly recognized as a hub for global innovation, and Lockheed Martin is proud of its long history of technical collaboration within the country," said Dr. Craig Martell, Lockheed Martin vice president and chief technology officer. "This project extends the strategic relationship between Lockheed Martin and IBM in quantum and AI while positioning Switzerland as a leader in these critical, cutting-edge fields. It provides resources and expertise, develops skills and enables joint research across the Swiss commercial, defense and academic ecosystem."
"IBM has collaborated with institutions in Switzerland for almost 100 years. Our research team at our Zurich lab has led fundamental technology breakthroughs for the world and has been part of the country's science ecosystem for decades," said Alessandro Curioni, vice president, Algorithms and Applications, IBM Research and director of the Zurich Research Laboratory. "As we continue to foster innovation with the Swiss community, we are excited to have the opportunity to put world-class quantum hardware, software and expertise directly into the hands of Switzerland's thriving academic institutions and industries."
"Switzerland will gain access to essential research infrastructure that will enable us to further advance the exploration of this emerging technology and educate the talent needed to support it," said ETH Zurich President Joël Mesot, emphasizing the opportunities the new quantum computer will bring to Switzerland.
Delivering quantum to the Swiss ecosystem
Organizations that join the innovation hub through ETH Zurich will have immediate access to these resources and IBM's fleet of quantum computers available over the cloud. Additionally, upon the system's deployment by the end of 2026, ETH Zurich will provide organizations with access to Switzerland's own dedicated IBM Quantum System Two. These capabilities will enable the country's community of innovators to accelerate scientific and industrial research and build new use cases across chemistry, materials science, optimization, financial services and more. Today, IBM quantum computers are already delivering scientific value across the globe as useful tools in these fields.
IBM and Lockheed Martin expand joint research initiatives
As part of the collaboration, two planned joint development projects between IBM and Lockheed Martin include the exploration of quantum sensing applications for navigation and the improvement of additive manufacturing of metallic alloys. These projects also complement ongoing efforts by IBM and Lockheed Martin across a range of advanced technologies focused on aerospace and defense innovation.
IBM and ETH Zurich build on a legacy of collaboration
This initiative also builds upon a close and long-standing collaboration between IBM and ETH Zurich, including a recently launched 10-year effort to advance foundational algorithmic research.
The quantum education and workforce development effort includes providing the Swiss ecosystem with access to the IBM Quantum Network and IBM Quantum Platform learning offerings, including coursework, certifications, and workshops; as well as event support, such as hackathons, conferences, and partner forums.
