The 5th Global Digital Trade Expo (GDTE) is being held in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, from September 23rd to 27th. Under the theme "Meet the AI Future at GDTE," this year's expo covers 170,000 square meters, with AI companies accounting for more than one-third of exhibitors. For the first time, it features a Token Zone. Malaysia and Hungary are this year's guest countries of honor, while the number of overseas exhibition delegations has already surpassed the combined total of previous editions.

The presence of Guangdong companies is particularly notable at the expo. Among them, Guangdong-based UBTECH Robotics is showcasing "AI Wukong," a desktop educational companion robot. The robot can sing, dance, and do push-ups, among other things, and is equipped with an AI camera that enables facial and object recognition, along with a certain level of memory capability. As soon as it was displayed at the expo, "AI Wukong" quickly attracted clients from cities in and around Zhejiang, as well as some overseas clients, who came over for business discussions.

Shenzhen Qianhai Wuxing Semiconductor Technology Co., Ltd., another Guangdong-based company, is showcasing its smart glasses for outdoor sports. With 20 years of experience in manufacturing sports headphones, the company has independently developed acoustic chips and acoustic algorithms. At the expo, the team explored the potential for collaborative development of hardware and AI software with research teams from Hangzhou Dianzi University and other universities. It also reached a preliminary agreement on further cooperation with the operator of the digital commercial space at Hangzhou East Railway Station. After the expo, the company plans to make a special trip to Yiwu to deepen discussions with potential sales partners.

Data indicates that, as of the time of reporting, the expo has attracted over 50,000 professional buyers, including more than 12,000 international participants. Hangzhou has also established partnerships with 136 overseas business associations and chambers of commerce and organized trade matchmaking based on global procurement needs.
