Wuzhen, a canal town in eastern China's Zhejiang Province, will host the 2026 "Light of the Internet" Expo from November 2 to 5, turning a destination known mainly for its waterways into a showcase for 6G, AI agents and humanoid robots.
Now in its 12th edition, the expo is a flagship event of the World Internet Conference (WIC) Wuzhen Summit. This year's theme is "Intelligent Connectivity, Smart Future," and the event will for the first time showcase "intelligent internet" comprehensively.
Six exhibition zones will cover next-generation connectivity, computing and large models, intelligent devices, industry applications, smart living, and cybersecurity. Organizers have made satellite internet, quantum communication, 6G and ultra-wideband key priorities. GSMA will bring Qualcomm and Keysight Technologies as part of a group pavilion, while China Telecom will present test results for a 6G-oriented space-air-ground network.
Alibaba, Tencent and iFlytek will unveil new large models. Hangzhou-based Kokoni will show its four-dimensional world model MoWorld 2.0. AI super-node systems from Alibaba, Huawei, ZTE and Sugon will be displayed together. Nubia's Navi X Ultra, billed as the world's first AI-agent phone, will appear alongside humanoid robots from Agibot, UBTech and Unitree, as well as AI glasses, AI earphones and AI PCs.
Unlike previous editions, this year's expo is also a marketplace. A digital-consumption fair will offer products including Stelato V8 and Luxeed R7 cars, UBTech robots, iFlytek AI learning machines and translation earphones, Keeson Technology's smart beds and ULS Robotics' exoskeleton robots – visitors can buy on the spot.
A "Tech for Warmth" program will give people with disabilities and senior residents hands-on access to brain-computer interfaces and exoskeleton rehabilitation devices. A youth science program will invite school students to explore the exhibits.
Visitors must register with a mobile phone number and wait for approval before entry.
