Under current plans, the plant will mainly produce robots for the education and service sectors. The two sides also discussed integrating UBTECH technology into the Almaty City project and deploying robotic equipment across mining, oil and gas, and large-scale logistics facilities.
On the education front, the talks explored a structured partnership between UBTECH and Kazakhstan's technical universities and colleges, including the creation of a joint capability center.
