At the end of last month, Founder Park held a closed-door event on AI hardware in Shenzhen.
More than 90 frontline AI hardware entrepreneurs/product leaders sat together and discussed: After OpenClaw, how should AI hardware be approached in 2026? What role can hardware play in users' lives, and how can a business model grow from that role?
On-site, the discussions were very practical and in-depth, with almost every topic expanding into new insights.
At the end of April, we decided to partner with Baidu Intelligent Cloud to continue this topic in Shanghai. Standing in the field with the highest commercial maturity, we will delve deeper: From proof of concept to user adoption, what exactly do the new innovations and paradigms of AI hardware look like?
What kind of hardware ecosystem is OpenClaw fostering? How is "hardware for AI" different?
Is OpenClaw Native a new opportunity or a trap? If a geek can handcraft an OpenClaw Harness over a weekend by spending 50 yuan on an ESP32, where is the moat for consumer-grade AI hardware?
What are the real scenarios and value of AI Agent + hardware capable of autonomous execution?
If you are working on AI hardware, your product is already gaining traction, or you haven't fully figured out the next steps, you are welcome to join the discussion.
