In mid-July 2025, Standard Robots hosted a vibrant Asia-Africa youth delegation from Côte d’Ivoire, the Congo, Thailand, Namibia and Kenya. Full of curiosity about cutting-edge tech, the youngsters explored industrial automation and discovered the benefits brought by intelligent robots and other emerging innovations.
The "Asia-Africa Youth AI Tour in China" is co-hosted by Codemao and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). The initiative aims to deepen science education exchanges among Asian and African nations and inspire youngsters to boost their capabilities in technological innovation.
Mr. Wang Yongkun, Founder and Chairman of Standard Robots, warmly received the student visitors. He shared the inspiring journey of Standard Robots, which evolved from a startup team of several students into an industry-leading enterprise specializing in industrial embodied intelligent robots.
Mr. Wang shared a message with the young participants: “Magic happens when we explore, turning your curiosity into breakthroughs, your ideas into our next innovation.”
The sharing offered valuable insights for the Asian and African students on their future growth paths, inspiring every young person to forge ahead firmly on the journey of technological innovation and exploration.
Witness Cutting-edge Technology
At Standard Robots’ Testing & R&D Center and exhibition hall, DARWIN, the embodied intelligent robot under testing, captured the students’ great attention and drew bursts of amazement. Many stepped forward to interact and take photos with DARWIN, experiencing the charm of cutting-edge embodied intelligence technology firsthand.
Insights Into the Future
Beyond sharing the company’s growth story, the Standard Robots team outlined the broad development prospects and application potential of industrial automation for the students. The team answered their questions about academic pathways and entrepreneurship directions, igniting their passion to contribute to the development of their respective countries.
Seeds of Dreams Sprout
The technological prowess and innovative vitality demonstrated by Standard Robots deeply impressed the Asian and African young visitors. During the exchange session, one student from Côte d’Ivoire voiced a heartfelt question: “How can I work at Standard Robots?” This simple question perfectly captures how their tech aspirations have been ignited.
The visit of participants from the "Asia-Africa Youth AI Tour in China" to Standard Robots represents not only the exchange of knowledge and technology, but also a cross-continental bond of shared dreams.
We believe these ignited sparks of technological curiosity will travel back with the youngsters to their home countries, take root and flourish, and evolve into a powerful driving force for local technological innovation, industrial upgrading and social progress.、
Technology knows no borders, and innovation marches toward the future. Standard Robots will keep committing to technological innovation and talent development. We look forward to collaborating with global partners to empower emerging talents worldwide.
