SHANGHAI, Oct. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On September 27, the 25th China International Industry Fair (CIIF 2025), themed “New Industrialization & Smart Manufacturing Resilience”, concluded successfully at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai.

Over the course of five days, the event brought together more than 3,000 exhibitors from 28 countries and regions, featured 10 high-level forums and nearly 300 thematic activities, and unveiled over 1,000 new technologies and exhibits for the first time. Among these were nearly 400 representative achievements across five “extremes”: ultra‑large, ultra‑small, ultra‑light, ultra‑intelligent, and ultra‑precise. One CIIF Special Award, 10 CIIF Awards, and 12 CIIF Professional Awards were also announced. CIIF 2025 showcased the development trends of advanced, intelligent, and green manufacturing, presented cutting-edge global industrial technology achievements, highlighted the strong resilience of China’s industrial economy, and underscored the innovative vitality of China’s industrial system in responding to global transformations.

By 2:00 p.m. on the closing day, the fair had attracted 224,000 trade visits from 133 countries and regions — an 11% increase compared with the same period of the previous edition. Online exposure reached 2.314 billion, up 71.28% year-on-year. This year’s edition of CIIF set new records for exhibitor numbers, exhibition area, visitor attendance, and overall impact, underscoring the fair’s strong brand appeal and communication reach.

At CIIF, technology was not merely an exhibit, but a practical, transferable, and collaborative factor of production. Industrial robots were no longer just cold, mechanical executors but “intelligent coworkers” capable of environmental perception, autonomous decision-making, and even multi-robot collaboration.

Chang Li, Vice President of Jaka Robotics, noted that this was the company’s seventh participation in CIIF. While unveiling its new generation of robots, the company also took the opportunity to learn from peers, accelerate the integration of upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, and build an innovative ecosystem.

Xiao Song, Chairman of Siemens China, remarked that the true implementation of industrial AI begins with accurately identifying application scenarios and succeeds when technology, data, and industrial know-how are deeply integrated. Siemens presented nearly 20 AI-related products and solutions, including its next-generation smart assembly equipment for new energy vehicles — the first pilot application in China of Siemens’ generative industrial AI assistant.

A representative from Xingye Materials, which made its debut at this year’s CIIF, shared that within the first three days of the fair, visitors from countries such as the United States, South Korea, Brazil, Serbia, and Pakistan had shown great interest and clear purchasing intentions for the company’s intelligent foldable solar tracking power system.

Hymson, the “star exhibitor” of Hall 2, showcased with an oversized booth of nearly 1,000 square meters this year. According to the company, the exhibition proved highly fruitful, with multiple key products signed for purchase on the spot. Meanwhile, the Industrial Machine Tool + Hundreds of Industries and Enterprises (Shanghai) event released the Shanghai Industrial Machine Tool Industry Capability Handbook, along with 100 demand lists and 200 supply lists. Over 80 cooperative projects were facilitated, with signed contracts exceeding RMB 3 billion.

Robert Mitrofan, Chief Representative of the BUSINESS ROMANIA in China, attended CIIF for the second consecutive year. Serving as a “CIIF Overseas Promotion Ambassador,” he commented from a global perspective on Chinese manufacturing, stating that industrial robots were one of the highlights of this year’s fair, and that the remarkable achievements China has made in high-tech manufacturing within a short period are truly impressive.

CIIF 2025 was not only a tribute to industrial civilization but also a preview of the future of industry. As Ding Han, Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, put it: “Today’s exhibits are tomorrow’s industries.” Chinese industry is transforming from a technology follower into a key participant and leader in global innovation. It will continue to deepen openness and cooperation, accelerate the empowerment of new industrial productivity, and contribute Chinese wisdom and strength to global industrial development.

SINGAPORE, Oct. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Leading global education group Education in Motion (EiM) and the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) are celebrating a decade of partnership that draws on more than 400 years of Dulwich College heritage with EiM’s pioneering, holistic education across its schools, including the Dulwich College International network.

Since launching in 2016 with the Dulwich international schools, and later extending to all Dulwich and Dehong schools in the EiM network, the partnership has brought the transformative power of theatre to thousands of students. Signature initiatives – including the network-wide Worldwise Shakespeare Festival, touring practitioner residencies, teacher professional development, RSC teacher certification programmes, and exclusive access to RSC performances worldwide – nurture confidence, creativity, empathy, resilience, and a lifelong love of language and the arts.

Founded in Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of William Shakespeare, for decades the RSC has connected global audiences to the works of Shakespeare and his contemporaries through world-class productions featuring acclaimed actors such as Ian McKellen, Ben Kingsley, Helen Mirren, and Ralph Fiennes.

Dulwich College in London was founded by William Shakespeare’s theatrical contemporary, Edward Alleyn and both were leading lights of Elizabethan theatre. Alleyn left documents to the College that are recognised globally as being the most significant archive related to Shakespeare’s world. The collection even includes a rare First Folio and legal documents that describe how London theatres in Shakespeare’s time ran. Dulwich College is regularly visited by academics, directors and actors keen to research the world of the Jacobean theatre.

“Our pioneering spirit and commitment to whole-child education, coupled with the RSC’s expertise in performance and storytelling, creates extraordinary opportunities for our students to develop character and skills for life,” said Lesley Meyer, Chief Education Officer at EiM. “This partnership is a testament to our belief that the performing arts are essential to a world-class education.”

“Through this partnership, young people gain confidence, develop their creativity and a deeper appreciation of language while building essential skills like teamwork, problem-solving and public speaking,” said Jacqui O’Hanlon, the Royal Shakespeare Company’s Deputy Executive Director. “But alongside those essential skills for life and work, Shakespeare’s plays and arts experiences matter because they are about how we become more human; they are about how we learn to make sense of ourselves, each other and the world. It’s incredibly exciting to celebrate 10 years of making those kinds of learning outcomes possible together.” 

Edgar Zillmann, Head of Events and Educational Partnerships at EiM, who has overseen the partnership since its inception, said, “Since 2016, we have brought together tens of thousands of students, teachers, and parents across our family of schools, helping our students build connections, confidence, leadership, self-expression – all essential skills for the 21st century.”

The partnership’s 10th anniversary will be marked at the 2025 Worldwise Shakespeare Festival, co-hosted by Dulwich College Suzhou and Dulwich International High School Programme Suzhou this October. Located in Suzhou, also known as the “Venice of China“, the celebration will include a large-scale public performance in one of the region’s most state-of-the-art theatres, with RSC practitioners set to perform for EiM students for the first time.

LONDON, Oct. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Supported by public-private organisations such as NATO and the UKQuantum for years, The City Quantum & AI Summit concluded successfully on October 8, 2025, at the Lord Mayor’s Mansion House in the City of London. This class of the summit marked its fifth anniversary, and “AhP-Tech Inc.” as the only invited company from Taiwan’s quantum computing industry, its presence for the topic of resilience in the panel discussion was particularly significant.

During this class of the summit, Acharya “Shi Zhan-Ah“, the founder and chairman of AhP-Tech, accepted the invitation from the summit founder, Karina Robinson to be the co-contributor on the chapter of International Collaboration for the summit’s white paper, and highlighted the technical capabilities on resilience that a quantum computing cloud platform provider should get ready on.

In an exclusive interview for this summit on social media, the founder and chairman also elaborated the quantum security architecture that AhP-Tech has prepared for global enterprises who concern sustainability. It addresses emerging threats driven by AI and Quantum Computing through introducing shared PQC standards plus proprietary patented quantum-resistance technology as a hybrid solution.

The leader of the company’s delegation, its General Manager, also participated in a panel-discussion for the summit’s agenda. Based on the topic of resilience for this panel, he not only reflected transnational friendly communications in deep technology, but also introduced the solution supported by AhP-Tech’s Quantum Computing Cloud Platform (AQCCP) that considers the practical requirements on technical transformation for supply chains.

AhP-Tech also announced its ongoing innovative R&D progress during the period of this event. In addition to enhancement solution for legacy RSA and ECDH use cases through its Ah-Crypto library wherein the library has obtained the validation of FIPS-203/204 issued by NIST based on configuration of full-parameter sets, it also announced that AQCCP is introducing NIST SP800-227 which is an official guideline to secure the key encapsulation mechanism.

Regarding development on physical modules, it successfully developed a true-randomness physical entropy source based on its proprietary technology. This is the first company in Taiwan’s quantum computing industry to make use of the photonic properties to derive ultra-high entropy (more than 0.9 per sample bit) in high performance without add-on conditioning functions. The entropy source has been officially submitted to a NIST-accredited laboratory for ESV (entropy source validation). In the domain of quantum chemistry, the company also visualizes achieving a large breakthrough in its generic Hamiltonian Analyzer Suite by end of 2026.

This time, AhP-Tech actively attended such an international cooperation summit, which focuses on the role of the public-private supply chain in deep technology. In this way, it not only advocates the importance of transnational collaboration in supply chains, but also opens a broader vision for Taiwan’s quantum computing industry.
