At the end of last month, Founder Park held a closed-door event on AI hardware in Shenzhen.
Over 90 frontline AI hardware entrepreneurs/product leaders sat together to discuss: After OpenClaw, how should AI hardware be approached in 2026? What role can hardware play in users' lives, and how can a business model emerge from this 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 purchase, 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 buy an ESP32 for 50 yuan over a weekend and handcraft an OpenClaw Harness, where is the moat for consumer-grade AI hardware?
What are the real scenarios and value of AI Agents + 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 come and discuss together.
