Made in China 2025 & Smart Manufacturing

China's manufacturing sector has evolved from low-cost assembly to high-value, technology-intensive production. Under the Made in China 2025 strategy, the country is investing heavily in robotics, industrial AI, digital twins, and advanced materials. Our manufacturing immersion takes you inside the smart factories where these technologies are being deployed at scale.

Robotics density — China installs more industrial robots annually than any other country
Digital twins — Virtual factory simulations reducing downtime by 30%+
Supply chain resilience — Vertical integration and domestic substitution strategies

This programme is ideal for COOs, supply chain directors, engineering leaders, and investors evaluating manufacturing capabilities. All facility tours are accompanied by strategic briefings for executive audiences.

Who This Programme Is For

This programme is designed for manufacturing executives, operations directors, supply chain strategists, and industrial automation leaders. Participants see Industry 4.0 in practice — from Foxconn's lights-out factories and SANY's digital twin-enabled heavy equipment production to BYD's vertically integrated EV manufacturing. Whether you are evaluating automation ROI, benchmarking factory efficiency, or exploring China-based production partnerships, this programme delivers the on-the-ground insights that desk research or virtual tours cannot provide.
