The city is now accelerating its expansion into emerging industries such as robotics and embodied intelligence. Wuhu will focus on high-potential, versatile market segments, accelerate the development of models, expand application scenarios and build commercial closed loops. Leveraging its manufacturing strengths, the city will enhance full-chain capabilities covering robot body, core components and complete machine assembly.
