Unitree Robotics has officially filed for a listing on the Shanghai STAR Market, revealing a massive jump in profitability and claiming the global lead in humanoid shipments for 2025.

Speaking at the Yabuli China Entrepreneurs Forum, Wang Xingxing detailed a roadmap for humanoid "generalization" and a vertical growth curve driven by robots manufacturing their own components.

A joint team from BIGAI and Unitree has unveiled OmniXtreme, a unified control policy that enables humanoid robots to perform diverse extreme motions—from backflips to breakdancing—without the need for task-specific overfitting.

With over 10 billion yuan poured into the sector in just two months, China’s humanoid industry is shifting from "showbiz" spectacles to a brutal race for industrial commercialization and survival.

Industrial giant Schaeffler has signed its first Chinese humanoid partnership with Leju Robotics and opened a specialized innovation factory in Taicang, even as leadership prepares investors for a conservative 2026 fiscal year.
