01 / OVERVIEW
The Alliance's First Stop Abroad
On 25 October 2026, the China Robotics Industry Alliance Going Global (Vietnam) Launch was held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The event was guided by Vietnam's Ministry of Science and Technology, Ministry of Industry and Trade and the National Innovation Center (NIC), hosted by the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee and the Investment and Trade Promotion Centre (ITPC), and organized by the China Robotics Industry Development Alliance, AIBRAIN, AICAP and AIROBO, alongside the Autumn Economic Forum (AEF 2026) and the GRECO 2026 green-growth products and services exhibition.
At the launch, the Alliance signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement with AIBRAIN and AICAP Group, a strategic cooperation framework agreement with AICAP Group on the centralized procurement of Vietnam's first batch of approximately 1,000 robots, and memoranda of understanding with Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HUTECH), the NANO International Development Consortium represented by HDMON Group, the InnoEx International Innovation Alliance, DETI Technology and ITIFY; AICAP Group signed a robot deployment cooperation memorandum with CBD Robotics. Eight signings were completed in total.
AIBRAIN unveiled the Vietnam Robotics Industry Operations & Services System: built on the AIROBO GLOBAL foundation, it supports five platforms — the Vietnam Embodied Intelligence Mall, the Robotics Operations Management Platform, the Robotics Maintenance Service Platform, the Robotics Data & Model Center and the National Robotics Regulatory Platform.

01 · STRATEGIC COOPERATIONChina–Vietnam Robotics Industry Strategic Cooperation SigningChina Robotics Industry Development Alliance × AIBRAIN × AICAP GroupStrategic Cooperation Framework Agreement
AICAP signed the Strategic Cooperation Framework Agreement with AIBRAIN and the Alliance; the other memoranda signed at the launch proceed under this framework.
02 · CENTRALIZED PROCUREMENTSigning for Vietnam's First Centralized Procurement of 1,000 RobotsChina Robotics Industry Development Alliance × AICAP GroupStrategic Cooperation Framework Agreement on Centralized Procurement of Robots and Smart Hardware
AICAP aggregates local demand for robots and smart hardware in Vietnam, while the Alliance brings its industry organization and member-company resources; the two sides establish a strategic centralized-procurement partnership to advance robot applications in Vietnamese hotels, shopping malls, property management and related industry scenarios.
04 / PROCUREMENT
Centralized Procurement of the First ~1,000 Robots
The Alliance and AICAP Group signed the Strategic Cooperation Framework Agreement on Centralized Procurement of Robots and Smart Hardware: AICAP aggregates local demand for robots and smart hardware in Vietnam, the Alliance brings its industry organization and member-company resources, and the two sides establish a strategic centralized-procurement partnership to advance robot applications in Vietnamese hotels, shopping malls, property management and related industry scenarios.
The two sides set approximately 1,000 robots as the phase-one overall demand-aggregation and project-matching target of this centralized procurement program, to be advanced in batches around scenario fit, product testing, investment budgets and procurement plans, and may explore cooperation models such as centralized procurement, leasing or operations services.
This target is a demand forecast and does not constitute a purchase order, minimum purchase quantity, guaranteed amount or any payment obligation; actual quantities, amounts and timing are subject to contracts or orders signed separately by the actual purchasing entities.
Products and ServicesEach category includes related equipment, consumables and maintenance services; categories involving imaging, personal data or medical qualifications require authorization and licensing under applicable law.

AIBRAIN Vietnam Robotics Industry Operations & Services System
AIBRAINAIROBO GLOBAL · VIETNAMOne system foundation, five platforms
Buying a robot is only the beginning. Acquiring the robot is the starting point; keeping it running long-term, stably and in compliance is the complete project.
The AIROBO GLOBAL foundation connects multi-brand devices, spaces and facilities, task workflows and operating data, providing reusable, shared capabilities to the five platforms:
- Vietnam Embodied Intelligence Mall
- Vietnam Robotics Operations Management Platform
- Vietnam Robotics Maintenance Service Platform
- Vietnam Robotics Data & Model Center
- Vietnam National Robotics Regulatory Platform
