On July 11th and 12th, the final stop of the City Tour for the first Guangdong Esports Super League (GESL) took place at Maoye Tiandi in Huaqiangbei, Shenzhen. Subsequently, the GESL Regional Playoffs were officially launched. Five major regions—Guangfu, the Greater Bay Area, Chaoshan, Hakka, and Western Guangdong—assembled simultaneously to compete for spots in the grand finals.

Leveraging this provincial-level professional esports tournament, the venue also featured a series of supporting activities, including robot parades, drone demonstrations, an AI-themed market, and an esports carnival.

Huaqiangbei boasts the world's most complete electronic information industry chain and serves as a major distribution hub for esports equipment such as gaming PCs, monitors, keyboards, and headsets, giving it a natural advantage in developing the esports industry. The third edition of Huaqiangbei's "AI Eight Steeds" (Top Eight AI Innovations) was unveiled through an innovative format combining "AI products and Cosplay shows." The featured products on this list include an AI wearable exoskeleton by Kenqing Technology, an AI PC by Santi Smart Tech, an AI 3D printer by Creality, an AI brain-computer interface by Macrotellect, an AI dual-screen translator by Zhixuetong, AI glasses-free 3D technology by Vision Universe, an AI desktop robot by UBTECH, and an AI voice recording card by DingTalk.

Since 2025, Huaqiangbei has been accelerating its transformation and upgrading from "China's No. 1 Electronics Street" to the "No. 1 Street for Generating New Quality Productive Forces." As of the first half of this year, four major industries—robotics, the low-altitude economy, smart wearables, and high-end chips—have become the core sectors with the highest revenue share, greatest market popularity, strongest innovation vitality, and most development potential in Huaqiangbei. They have emerged as the "New Big Four" pillars supporting the area's future development.
