An investment paradigm shift is underway. Artificial intelligence is evolving from digital applications into the physical world, where humanoid robots and embodied intelligence are beginning to reshape industries, labor markets, and global competition. At the same time, private markets are expanding access to innovation, while geopolitical volatility continues to redefine capital flows and supply chains.
The KraneShares Innovation Forum brings together company executives, market strategists, and policy experts to explore the themes shaping tomorrow’s opportunities—from AI and automation to private markets, the U.S.-China relationship, and modern portfolio construction.
In partnership with OpenMind, a physical AI company developing the cognitive layer that makes robots useful, attendees will have the opportunity to interact with the latest humanoid robots and experience firsthand how physical AI is moving from concept to real-world deployment.
The event will include lunch, interactive discussions around emerging technologies, global realignment, and modern portfolio solutions, humanoid robot demos, and cocktails to follow.
